Obviously the best choice to switch search engines. But isn't pressing page down or adding a ruel to your adblock easier than editing the URL?

Assuming you're making the change in your browser's default search settings, and not editing the URL every time you do a search, it takes a minute or two once, and it's done forever. No harder than adding an adblock rule and it also removes a lot of other bullshit, too (since it's just defaulting you to a 'web only' search).
