Summary: | Various embodiments are directed to providing users with more control over their navigation privacy, while offering robust search experiences through a web browser's address bar.

In one or more embodiments, the status of search suggestion functionality is conveyed to the user so that they understand that their keystrokes are being provided to a search provider so that search suggestions can, in turn, be provided back to the web browser. |
