Is Canonical tracking me through the DuckDuckGo search engine?

[Zead]

The thing is that I never seen t-canonical search results on my ddg searches .

Might have to do with xul removed I guess ,

I tried to check for ddg s search results to see from the op s link above & never saw this t-can results , I think it has to do with my ff prefs  settings , don t know .

But as I saw ddg has links with canonicals , so I lokok elsewhere . ( another search engine . )

I removed xul package before I even written this thread, and had this t-canonical stuff. Maybe you removed the package before you started Firefox? It's only the search engine modified, so if you say you don't get t-canonical from search engine, the xul could be what modifies the search engine.

I hope you are aware I am talking about search engine, from the bar. PREFERENCES > SEARCH > DEFAULT SEARCH ENGINE.
I don't understand why they have to squeeze such a bullcrap there? They have a default website in Firefox, for google search I think, which brings them money, thanks to Ubuntu Firefox Modifications (that xul package). Now they are in DuckDuckGo engine. Even online searches are enabled by default on Ubuntu, which are used for ads too. They also accept donations. If people want to give them money, they will. Why do I have to search the internet for information to be able to stop their tracking? I don't care it says it's anonymous, the truth is, you never know how anonymous, and if they even say the truth. And like I said, I'm using Linux Lite, not Ubuntu. I know Linux Lite is based on Ubuntu, but whatever. GNU is free (both as in price and freedom). if I will ever use Ubuntu, then I could leave the t-canonical in DDG. But It's not very right what they do. GNU/Linux distributions approved by Free Software Foundations would never do that, if they did, they would be removed. They even pointed out why they don't recommend Ubuntu, one of the points were the "online searches" spying.

I'm trying to support Free Software Foundation, and I prefer 100% free distros, but I'm glad there are distros like Linux Lite, because my laptop, precisely my graphics card doesn't work right without kernel blobs. I couldn't even get full resolution. But I heard Intel GPUs works great without blobs.

One of the reasons why I switched from Windows to GNU/Linux, was the spying on it, and now I'm getting it from Canonical. -.- Not as bad as Microsoft, but still. And I got tired of Microsoft's crap anyway + why should I pay for Windows when there are free better alternatives? I also heard they tried to destroy Free Software movement (The Halloween documents). But who knows if that documents are legit. But It's pretty cheap from them to do that. Funny they are copying features from both OSX and GNU/Linux. Maybe GNU/Linux is much harder to use than Windows, but I still love it, It's better, much better. And Linux Lite is probably most easier to use GNU/Linux distro I tried. I tried many distros. Even with Ubuntu and Linux Mint, I had to search the internet on how to set up Samba shares. But with Linux Lite, it was easy and fast + they provide very simple documentation for that.
