That strudel goes to the Google image search feature.

Where is the image search function buried on the Google page?

It's nearly anywhere an image is. Right click the image then down near the bottom of the menu is "Search Google for this image". You probably know it already, just I didn't use the right name.

with chrome at least : right click on any image

I normally don't use Chrome (even though I have it), because Google is one of the biggest data-miners and biggest violators of user privacy rights on the internet, all without any kind of knowing permission from their users (at least outside of the European Union). And they make an ungodly amount of money doing it.

That said, when I need to track the source of an image, I will bite the bullet and use Chrome.

What's it like inside the EU so? I know I get data mined, but how badly?

I figure if Google wants to know that I play Call of War and post on this forum it doesn't help them sell me anything ;)

Supposedly within the EU, the governing regulatory bodies are taking most of the American internet companies, prominently including Google and Facebook, to task for their violations of user privacy under EU law. I'm a big fan of free markets, but not when a company effectively takes my personal information without permission to sell to third-parties. Nor am I a big fan of the evolving EU regulatory super-state, but they are right and the Americans are wrong in this particular case. At its core the American ideal of freedom means the right to be left alone, and it's time our federal privacy laws catch up with the new era of electronic data capture.

Thanks for the info. Online security is pretty important, crap like SWATting is bad enough, never mind people knowing what you like to browse on incognito. Discord is a huge data mine too, people I've been talking to on it complained about seeing a load of ads about stuff we were talking about right after the conversation, or the very next day. Very quick sell with that data.

No need for Chrome; just go to google.com, click images, clicks "Search by image" and upload the image.

Of course it's still google so you're still getting mined.
