I must also echo the trend of comments here; please make this opt-in... and even better, provide the choice and details in a dialog upon installation.
This would be nice and transparent, giving the user the choice from the start and therefore probably also more likely to trust Canonical than maybe realising later on that this feature exists and not understanding what it fully does. Or at least put this in a separate lens, rather than global dash. The current trend is very concerning to me and many others. Look at Linux Mint and the support and donations, sponsorships etc they have and how they make revenue without resorting to this kind of thing. Different kettle of fish I know with the size of Canonical as a company, but you get my point. Mint does not try to track your local searches, which I think is the worst part of this. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1054776 Title: Don't include remote searches in the home lens To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-lens-shopping/+bug/1054776/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
