HN Search has Google Analytics enabled, can it be removed?
HN Search (Algolia) has Google Analytics enabled it seems, which feels kind of deceptive considering the stripped down minimalism of the rest of site (that almost lulls you into thinking you can browse the site with js enabled).
Is it possible to have the algolia search that doesn't come with ga?
Emailing the mods using the footer Contact link will get a reply. This might not, if they don’t see it.
You can remove it from all sites by installing the uBlock Origin browser extension (available for Firefox or Chrome) - it blocks Google Analytics and all sorts of other third-party trackers.
Doesn't having google services enhance your search results on google?
It's probably too risky to de-google.
