Comment (by heyjoe):

 > Correlate isn't that simple.

 I am not saying that it is simple per se but the more data there is, the
 easier it becomes to correlate it. Though I am unaware of starpage's
 infrastructure and relations, still we are all aware that Amazon is not
 our friend. Ideally we would have a decentralized search but AFAIK such is
 not available ATM.

 > I don't see the gains from such a complex maneuver to be honest.

 Which is a complex maneuver? Setting another default search engine is
 easy. Though I am not familiar with any legal factors that may be
 preventing this (as in an expressed disagreement by Startpage).
