The information search engine, Ask.com has released AskEraser, a new tool that can be considered as the first step (of many) in handing over the rightful control of privacy to its users. According to EPIC’s Marc Rotenberg, this cool tool prevents from storing any search data. It can completely delete search queries and any other associated information from the site’s servers. This includes complete texts of queries, IP addresses, user ID’s, and session ID’s. Users can find the link for the AskEraser tool on the upper right corner of the search engine’s homepage and search results pages and can be turned off anytime. AskEraser is available now in the U.S. and in the UK — and will be deployed globally.
