google search on start.fedoraproject.org

hi,

I wonder why google is the search engine used on the default browser start page start.fedoraproject.org.

following the news there are frequent messages about google being not so free, tracking your searches, combining your data without opt-out, stealing mail and passwords from privately owned wifi all over the world (was it a bug or must-have feature for maps?).

IMHO this is in contrast to the Fedora philosophy of Freedom. Fedora repos do not include software with non-free licenses but links to a non free search engine company the same time...

any ideas?

why not point to a more free alternative search engine like duckduckgo.com?

TIA, Meine
