    this is a very poor argument. every browser I’ve used, even Chrome, makes it easy to change the default search engine in the settings.

        I wasn’t making any argument, merely offering advice how to change something and my experience in doing so. But my comment clearly upset a lot of Chrome users because I mentioned Google not respecting your privacy, which is a given for a lot of companies.

        As I understood it, they were implying that Apple’s default is Google but they still care about privacy because they make it easy to switch to Duckduckgo.

        I pointed out that this has been an essential feature in web browsers for years.

          I wouldn’t agree with that being the correct interpretation, just so you know.
