At the same time, Google hates people using their name generically for web searching because it risks them losing the trademark.

So I guess I am conflicted, because I hate to acknowledge Google more than I need to, but would love to see the term become meaningless.

    I use DuckDuckGo but say Google for this exact reason. If I'm talking to someone I actually like I usually elaborate to say "Google isn't the search engine I actually use because it's sus, but you know what I mean"
