Listen.
And there are several search engines that will not log the searches.
DuckDuckGo dot com
Startpage dot com
Do not use g o o g l e as your default engine they log everything .
Lots of layers to do as safety .
No need to make it so easy for them, .....
Thank for the info Linville. I downloaded Startpage, but it seems to be fighting with g o o g l e over startup access. I also noticed that SP has a powered by g o o g l e note on it. Don't know what to think. I will keep working on it. Hope it doesn't consume my whole day
MoJim.
Hi, there is someplace on your computer to make a default search engine.
Maybe in your control panel.....
I usually use DuckDuckGo have it set to default...
Hmm I remember seeing that powered by goofel on the start page but I will have o look at It to remember what it is.
MoJim, click on the little error beside the word Goog le and it says that startpage submits your search to them after removing any identifying data from you.....
A very good thing we all should do or use....
