Working in cybersecurity and mistaking your own online behavior as being relevant for everyone else. How could that possibly backfire? /s

    If someone cares, they have to be careful. No amount of anonymous tor usage will prevent exposing you if you Google your name and social security number.

    You shouldn't go around advising people to use anonymous payment methods for search engines that "protect your privacy". That's really bad advice, is all I am saying. But good for you...

    They protect your privacy as much as a search engine can.

    You really need to step back and reevaluate.

    In this scenario: Your assessment of the reality of what "protecting people's privacy" means.

    Some protection is better than none. Don't let perfect be the enemy of good.

    Except using a search engine without login from a private browser window is better(!) protection by far.

    Of course they could, they don't need to since you're logged in, and they don't have an incentive since you're a paying customer, not the product.

    in other words, "trust me bro". You really should look for a job more suitable to your qualifications. IT security is not it.

    Yeah, lawyers write terms and conditions for shits and giggles. Good luck with your incognito mode.

    In the case of capitalism, yes, that's pretty accurate. T&C mean nothing when it comes to enforceable consumer rights vs. digital giants. Especially for companies based in Fascistan.
