Ask.com Launches AskEraser Giving Searches Ability To Search Anonymously

Ask.com has launched AskEraser, giving searchers the ability to search anonymously. Ask.com told us about this tool back in July, and six months later, it’s now live for all searchers to use.
When a searcher activates AskEraser, Ask will stop recording the searcher’s search queries and cookie information. This information includes IP address, User ID, Session ID, and the complete query text. AskEraser is available across many of Ask.com’s properties including Web search, image search, AskCity, news search, blog search, video search, and Maps & Directions.
How does it work?
At the top right of the Ask.com home page, you should see a link to “AskEraser.”
I got to tell you, Ask.com is after my business — if only they would offer more advanced search operators, I would be there.
