I do no have anything what-so-ever to do with Google.

I suggest you dump their search engine and use the one I use, DuckDuckGO

The Search Engine That Doesn't Track You

I was on the interwebs somewhere and a blogger wailed that all search engines “ride” Google and specifically said that DuckDuckGo still passes through Google.Heard anything like it? Thoughts?

It’s nice to see the left getting bit by the same animal they attacked us with. It would be nice to return to the days of freedom long gone where a boss really was the boss and could fire anybody for anything they felt like.

You’re being tracked by every request you make regardless of the intermediary search engine. You’re leaving “web” prints everywhere. :)

I’m guessing to be dark, you’d need a trusted proxy with randomized request delays scaled to the level of traffic. Then at best, you’d be just one of the many million blams.

With the alternate search engines, sometimes the results are not very good and functionality is limited. So I frequently end up redoing the search in Google anyway.

I sincerely hope that this discrimination lawsuit against Google forces it to clean up its toxic culture.

The Damore event is what finally made me go through every device and browser in the house and make sure Google wasn’t the default search engine. I should have done it much sooner.

LOL... you're being tracked on this very page by Google Analytics. You interact with Google thousands of times a day.

Wonder if Amazon has it’s eye on Google?.
