Any particular reason when setting duckduckgo as the default search and searching from the url bar we get an additional nugget of info sent? Case in point: GET /?q=add+duckduckgo&t=canonical HTTP/1.1 Host duckduckgo.com User-Agent Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:26.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/26.0 Accept text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8 Accept-Language en-US,en;q=0.5 Accept-Encoding gzip, deflate DNT 1 Connection keep-alive I didn't add canonical...so why is it there? In about:config I see distribution.id canonical Why is this being sent? Duckduckgo didn't respond, so I thought I'd ask here. Ironic...
