Yes, let's suggest for Ubuntu users use an obscure search engine, because they are worried someone at Google Inc may be knowing what kind of searches they do. Anyone who is concerned about Google would already use a different search engine. Ubuntu does not force you to use Google. I highly doubt Google or "Big Brother" would care what you search. If "Big Brother" cared enough about you, they could just sniff all your traffic ISP-side. If you are searching for something illegal or incriminating, you're probably going to get in trouble, no matter if you use Google, or $some_random_foreign_search_engine. I am not implying that you are searching anything illegal, but it's pretty crazy to care about where your search queries go (especially when they are being sent in plaintext across the Internet). -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
