I've found that the ads (from google) on startpage.com aren't really anonymous, because I found them tied to my country (I've tried the same search from Tor Browser and the ads weren't country sensitive). I understand that the request to get the google ads isnt anonyoums like the search.
So I wonder, Is really useful to have an anonymous search engine if you need Tor in both cases (StartPage vs. Google)? Is this something important for the most "privacy conscious" out there?
