This is a defeat of sorts….if your Google.
Seems folks are indeed interested in securing privacy and not having Google
track you're every thought.
Thanks to the MacGroup I switched to DuckDuck on all devices and feel much

the available search engines based on “new usage statistics” from “recently
collected data.” DuckDuckGo is the preferred search option in more than 60
markets including the United States and the United Kingdom.
