    Really? I’ve been using it for a while and haven’t noticed tracking.

    What sorts of tracking have you seen them engage in?

    They display ads in search results, which they presumably do need to track clicks for. But you can literally just switch the ads off in the settings. And then you’ll never see them again. They’re on by default, but not mandatory.

      IIRC on the search results page they track your mouse movements and which links you clicked on. The latter I could maybe see as legitimate; the former is pretty sus.
