I'm not up to arguing (especially when there's no need to). "Microsoft ends Windows 7 security updates | TechCrunch" Windows 7 is a legacy OS. https://techcrunch.com/2023/01/10/microsoft-ends-windows-7-security-updates/

Everything except new versions of Windows 10/11 is officially "legacy", including, but not limited to, Windows 8.1 and old Windows 10 (like LTSB 2016 version).

Hi, Because the results are still somewhat good, despite the known fact of censorship. What alternatives there are? Miserable. Most of them use Google and/or Yahoo results anyways.

You mean ChatGPT suffers a notorious paranoia?

Neither this browser, nor this topic are only limited to XP, I don't use XP (most of the time). Where do you get the stats about the "whole" world? Link to a reputable source, please.

QUIC via UDP works as a direct connection, including bypassing VPN. Those IPs Chrome pings at the start is only what you see, and only the tip of the iceberg. Most firewalls (to this date) don't know how to deal with QUIC's UDP connections, QUIC was meant and developed to pass through firewalls unnoticed. There is a topic regarding those sneaky connections. https://msfn.org/board/topic/186094-google-quic-is-vulnerable-to-cyber-criminal-activity-creates-a-‘black-hole’-that-hackers-can-exploit/

Oh, just found this! It's indeed Google tracking. Someone even asked ChatGPT. "The sca_esv parameter is a piece of data in the URL that's likely internal to Google's system for tracking, sorting, or customizing search results. URL parameters like these are often used for various purposes including analytics, session identification, and to tweak the behaviour of the search. " "Asking ChatGPT to brainstorm what sca and esv could stand for in the context of a Google search:" https://webapps.stackexchange.com/questions/172215/google-videos-search-sca-esv-query-parameter-possible-tracking

But Firefox and all the forks (to this date) are one of the most notorious trackers, and they are nowhere near Ungoogled. So it just confirms my worries.
