2009-07-27 15:36:37 Vincenzo Ciancia description The default ubuntu home page in firefox shows a google search with an ubuntu border. It does not make it clear to end users that the search is not the standard google search. A short explanation and a link to further information should be added to the default search page. Also, the default home page is not local, it is on the ubuntu servers. Why is that? It could be local. It should be made evident to end users that their query strings are passing untouched to the server, to protect their privacy. As we are in topic I also ask you to clarify if the launchpad cookie can be associated to the queries user make. The default ubuntu home page in firefox shows a google search with an ubuntu border.
