You can turn it off on the settings page. You can even turn it off by default via the search URL parameters (all options can be turned on/ off this way without allowing cookies), so it could be off in a default browser search plugin. _______________________________________________ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
