Comment (by cypherpunks):

 Replying to [comment:1 zyan]:
 > Is this really causing any problems? I did this because I see no
 difference between www.google and encrypted.google at this point from a
 privacy or security perspective.

 Well, maybe there's no difference now, but it used to be, and the website
 used to contain a subpage (or a paragraph on the FAQ subpage, I don't
 remember) explaining it in detail. So perhaps there's nothing wrong with
 the change, it's just strange that it was done so silently, or maybe I
 have missed something, then I'm sorry.
 Still, even if there's no difference, it would be clearer & cleaner to
 rename 'Search www.google.com' 'Google Search', and the current 'Google
 Search' 'Google Search (encrypted.google.com)'.
