The addition of the Amazon search feature for me raises one particular question that I hope can be addressed. I have been an avid supporter of Ubuntu, passing out discs and evangelizing the operating system whenever I can. However, at this time I feel that I can no longer do so because I am afraid that someone may interpret the online search feature within the desktop as a keylogger and hold me liable for potentially leaking their personal information.
I do not pretend to have a full understanding of the legal framework around this feature and am aware that the terms of service does include language regarding the Amazon search functionality. I just feel that I am inadequately prepared to articulate the above mentioned feature to new users who are unfamiliar with Ubuntu without exposing myself to potential risk due to a misunderstanding of the intended functionality. I believe this feature provides significant value to the user, but would prefer to see greater transparency with it from a laymens perspective so as to eliminate any and all concerns of its functionality. Thank You, Ian
