      Yes, but users with basic knowledge don’t even get the difference between a web browser and a search engine. Shutting down Google seems like a perfect “simple” explanation for a general digital lockdown.

          I don’t know, I still see a lot of people not knowing this. I’ve seen iPhone users get confused when I use Safari to go to a website rather than the Google app on their phone.

          It’s really a shame because you just know that that Google app is just spyware.
