Google isn't the only search engine.

And Chrome is not the only browser (as it tracks you as well.)

at the end of the day, everything that you do online is tracked and loged, so not using google isnt going to change that.

Because The Onion has actual newspaper boxes around cities? Not to mention that the Onion makes it sound like you should take it seriously?

The Onion has always been amusing.

And surprisingly, it's more fair and balanced than Fox News.
