Is this true if you aren’t using Google as your search engine?
- rejectfinite 3y agoNo. Atleast not on Firefox. I think? idk lol
- rzzzt 3y agoThe hashed form of the URL might still reach Google as part of the Safe Browsing initiative, although a copy of the List of Naughty Websites is kept locally as well, so if you visit a known deceptive site, it need not ping their servers.
- soundnote 3y agoNo. It's just that Firefox adverstises itself as private: https://imgur.com/a/p4CVBHb https://imgur.com/a/p4CVBHb "Power and privacy to the people. No need to dig into your security settings. Fierce privacy is our default." but has Google as the default search engine and defaults to having search suggestions on.
