Replying to [comment:15 cooperq]:
> I have attached the preceeding two xml files as proposed patches for a
DDG widget and a google widget that searches through google.is since
iceland has better privacy law. If you drop these into
App/Firefox/searchplugins they should automatically show up in firefox.
Google.is should also automatically become the default search engine.
I have attached an XML file for search through the DuckDuckGo TOR hidden
service. The file added before uses the regular DDG website, not the TOR
service.
> <Url type="text/html" method="GET" template="https://duckduckgo.com/">
<Param name="q" value="{searchTerms}"/> </Url>
The attachment for google.is does not actually search google.is
> <Url type="application/x-suggestions+json" method="GET"
template="http://suggestqueries.google.com/complete/search?output=firefox&client=firefox&hl={moz:locale}&q={searchTerms}"/>
</Url>
I strongly disagree with using google.ca or google.is. I sincerely doubt
that Google cannot link a person logged in to googlemail.com to a search
on google.ca or google.is by IP, browser fingerprinting and/ or other
means. I object to adding google.is as default after so many postings pro
DDG and against Google. And I would like to ask in what way Islandic law
regulates Google?
