Is this website still necessary?

inputsh opened this issue · 1 comments

In the newest release (and probably in the future releases) of Ubuntu, the Amazon dash search is disabled by default.

So, currently, with 15.04 and 15.10 already in their EOL, 14.04 will soon become the only supported Ubuntu version with the Amazon dash search enabled by default.

Which begs the question: is this website still necessary?

@Aleksandar-Todorovic - by latest you mean 16.04 or 16.10? Either way on my 16.04 install I can go to System Settings -> Security and Privacy -> Search and uncheck "When searching in the Dash: Include online search results". I haven't done a full wireshark style audit to see what or what is not being sent out over the wire though!
