    No, you don’t understand. Google doesn’t want searching to be called Googling so they can keep the trademark/copyright. So even if you use DuckDuckGo or Bing or whatever, call it “Googling” to fuck Google over.

      This is interesting but if my choice is to move the needle on actual market share or cause Google to lose their trademark, I’ll pick the first one. They’d just rename it Chrome Search, turn the domain to suckit.com and it would still have 90% market share due to being the default search engine in every browser.
