I have Google Web History turned off and I'm seeing a pretty good mix of things in my results. E.g., I'm heavily left-wing, somewhat pro-gun control, with no personal interest in shooting, but my results for 'gun' are pretty much all gun shops and fansites. For Barack Obama I get mostly official sites, although some of the top news is critical (I'm Canadian, if it matters). Egypt gives me a mix of travel, protests, general info and ancient history. I don't recall ever turning it off, so is it off by default? And if so, what's the problem here?
