Disable remote-content-search (product suggestions) in Unity

Project:Trisquel
Version:7.0
Component:Programs
Category:feature request
Priority:critical
Assigned:Unassigned
Status:closed
Description

By installing Unity and using it right out of the box, it suggests us buying products online, etc.

I think it is a privacy invasion and must be disabled by default. It could be disabled by the following command or using dconf:


gsettings set com.canonical.Unity.Lenses remote-content-search 'none'
