Chrome Version: 71.0.3578.10 (Official Build) dev (64-bit) (cohort: Dev)
OS: Windows 10

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Install Chrome
(2) Sign into Chrome with an account protected by custom sync passphrase
(3)

What is the expected result?

Modal dialog that pops upon Sync start is correct in every statement it makes.

What happens instead?

Dialog in screenshot shows.

I do not believe that the wording: "Google may use your browsing history to personalize Search, ads, and other Google services" is true, since a user with custom passphrase would not have these personalizations enabled as Google cannot read this data (as it's encrypted).

I think that our most privacy sensitive users (those with custom passphrase) should have a 100% factually correct dialog popped when they enable sync - especially when this dialog is modal and cannot be bypassed. The dialog should not say that "Google may use your browsing history" since this is not the case.

Please use labels and text to provide additional information.

If this is a regression (i.e., worked before), please consider using the
bisect tool (https://www.chromium.org/developers/bisect-builds-py) to help
us identify the root cause and more rapidly triage the issue.
