using privacy declaring search engine is not ensuring that you are not logged
- they could be lying (see numerous VPN providers claiming no logging and then leaking detailed logs)
- something else can be logging (keylogger, IPS, hacker attacking search engine, shoulder browsing)

rewrite Tor recommedation a bit
...
- fix typos
- change "optimal security" to "increased security", in many cases it would not be optimal given how many things will break on Tor
- link issues discussing tradeoffs
In general I would make it more clear that it is not always worth doing. Maybe "Advanced" should be "Advanced, has serious tradeoffs" with word tradeoffs linking separate page documenting issues mentioned in #19 ?
