schestowitz | Well, I somewhat agree with RS. I actually did a lot of things to remove all google plugs and searching capabilities from within address bar and other fields. It's hard if not impossible. | Nov 02 23:27 |
TechrightsSocial | @schestowitz@joindiaspora.com: One must acknowledge the reality that, Mozilla #Firefox (also in Ubuntu) has an address bar that's spyware (but not for local files) | Nov 02 23:27 |
schestowitz | However, I know it's just part of a deal: you get FX and you get Google bundled with it. | Nov 02 23:27 |
schestowitz | @Robert - Mozilla does great job with Firefox, but I wish they could switch to some other search engine which respects users privacy, like Startpage or DuckDuckGo [or Yauba] ... I know you probobly can't do anything about it as a Mozilla employee, but it would be just great to see that switch! | Nov 02 23:27 |
