Recently, Canonical said they integrated Amazon search data into the local system search of Ubuntu 12.10.Over the past two years, the transformation of Linux from GNOME panel configuration to the Unity environment has aroused a lot of debate in the industry. Now, Canonical has integrated Amazon search results into Ubuntu, making it again on the top of the storm. Because the integration results may involve sensitive user privacy issues.
However, Canonical's CEO Mark Shuttleworth said he was not worried about this and made the following remarks: "Don't believe us? However, you have chosen to trust us. We all have your root ".
In addition, Shuttleworth did not disclose to users how to remove Amazon integration from Ubuntu 12.10, but said this integration would make search better.
Although Shuttleworth does not mention that the integration of Amazon data into Ubuntu 12.10 will return a certain amount of money, many users may post their feelings on their blog, they would rather donate for Canonical than use the system with Amazon plug-ins.
