Today I found out that google docs infects html exports with spyware, no scripts, but links in your document are replaced with invisible google tracking redirects. I was using their software because a friend wanted me to work with him on a google doc, he is a pretty big fan of their software, but we were both somehow absolutely shocked that they would go that far.

    By browsers do you mean search engines in the browsers? I use DDG for search. Firefox is king, browsers wise.

      I thought DDG was some kind of front end for Google search. How wrong am I, and if I’m right, does this mean it’s the Google search in, e.g., Chrome browser that’s doing this? Otherwise how would DDG be avoiding it?
