Google beta’s SSL for web searches

According to this H article, Google is beginning to beta a new feature of providing SSL for their standard web search service. As one commenter noted, Google is still collecting the same information from your searches but this will limit 3rd parties from eavesdropping on your search queries. Remember SSL doesn’t guarantee absolute privacy as there’s Moxie Marlinspike’s work, chance of CA intermediaries, and your employer loading their own trusted CA’s into your corporate devices.
