that when you type certain key words into searches on google or whatnot, people sometimes notice their harddrives work unusally hard for a split second, apparently sending some info to someone somewhere.  just a thought.  i've been thinking more and more about gettin off this site, even though i don't do anything unlegal

Now all your searches are logged for analytics and marketing...

You are too paranoid about the wrong things.  Use wireshark if you are interested in where your data is being sent.

wow...just trying to make some sense about it, no need to go getting your panties in a bunch...

:chillpill:

So your thought was seriously that you search a certain thing in google, then it accesses something on your local hdd, which would have to be at the same place on everyones drive, then sends this data (uploads it) across the web to some place?

peace

People aren't being busted on internet forums.. they're being busted locally because of snitches and people with loud mouths

Just a search engine chief...http traffic. I'm sure if you blocked all outgoing protocols except 53/DNS and 80/http - that you would maybe experience the same thing. Like Alan said, google wireshark if you want to see what's going on.
