%This report aims to find trends in Web~Search activity connected to \texttt{tracking\_hints} and cookies. Playwright is used automate the process of performing web-queries. Data is downloaded as \texttt{HAR}, and transformed to \texttt{CSV} files using automation scripts. \texttt{CSV} files are loaded into Power~BI, to be transformed and visualized using Power~Query. It is found that private-focused tools tend to respect privacy in web-queries. And at last, Google leaks all user privacy.


This report aims to find trends in Web~Search activity connected to \texttt{tracking\_hints} and cookies. Playwright is used to automate the process of performing web-queries. Data is downloaded as \texttt{HAR} files and transformed into \texttt{CSV} files using automation scripts. The \texttt{CSV} files are loaded into Power~BI, where the data is transformed and visualized using Power~Query. It is found that privacy-focused tools tend to better respect privacy in web-queries, while Google shows significantly more tracking-related behavior and privacy leakage compared to the other Search~Engines.
