So, on the topic of the (not provided) "data hiding" and now this... if it's just because of users using secure search, is this really as big of a travesty or a problem as its made out to be?
To me it looks like SEO/Marketing folk acting like it's the end of the world that 50% of clickthroughs are (not provided). And for them, it may be bad as they like having that data (which they certainly didn't have a little over a decade ago).
On the other hand though, if I'm using Google secure search, as a user, this seems like behavior that benefits me privacy-wise.

Am I missing some aspect here?
