I also use it for YouTube videos of things that I don't want Google making recommendations on. For example, if trying to fix something and need to watch a video, I don't want to have home improvement videos in my feed for the next 6 months.

Using it to watch YouTube without logging in currently gets around that whole we don't allow ad blockers thing.

So does uBlock Origin, even while logged in.

I've been getting hit lately with uBlock origin on Firefox if I'm logged in.

Still works most of the time.

Why search with Google? If you think it has better results, use whoogle.

Great, now Whoogle will be in my recommendations for the next 6 months
