I don't see what the big deal is. If Canonical can make a little more money with this to keep funding the distro then good for them, it's a barely profitable company that offer its main product for free. As for the extension, it gives the same results as regular google, don't like it? Remove it, it's just a firefox extension. Or install your own firefox.

- andyking 17y agoI'm not daft enough to be using Karmic alphas on my home computer but on the current 9.04 version with bundled Firefox 3.0, the default Ubuntu start page and the "real" Google homepage give quite different search results. Perhaps it's down to the Ubuntu page delivering US search results or something, I don't know - but I definitely prefer the standard Google page.
