Google began offering an encrypted option for Web searchers on Friday and said it planned to roll it out for all of its services eventually.

 
 
People who want to use the more secure search option can type "https://www.google.com" into their browser, scrambling the connection so the words and phrases they search on, and the results that Google displays, will be protected from interception.

 
 
The beta service of the secure Web search option begins in the United States on Friday and will be rolled out over the next few days to users around the world, said Murali Viswanathan, a Google search product manager.

 
 
Friday's announcement makes Google the first major search engine to offer this privacy-protective feature. AOL, Yahoo, and Microsoft currently do not.

I guess it is better than nothing, but google still keeps you search words on file and uses them to target ads to you. They can also use them to build a profile on you and they are also warrantable by the police.

Google knows everything. If you search for "racing car tyres" and then for "sexy lingerie" they classify you either as weird female or as pervert... ;)
