Description

Force google.com (aka Google No Country Redirect) when searching in Google Chrome Omnibox

This extension, will force using google.com (aka Google No Country Redirect) when you search in Google Chrome Omnibox.

If you travel a lot, or you just care about privacy and use proxy to hide your real IP from another country, imagine you’re in China and using a Japanese proxy, Google always redirects you to google.co.jp when you search in Google Chrome Omnibox. This extension could definitely make your browser stick with google.com.

Under the Hood

This extension simply replace the URL you request before onBeforeRequest to google.com, no additional internet request will be made since the replace process will be done in 307 Internal Redirect.

Doesn't seem to work. I do my searches in the omnibox and still get country specific stuff.

Works Just as Described. I would rate it Five stars if you could add one little toggle to Enable and Disable the extension from the icon itself. Maybe clicking on the icon could do this it would be easier to switch from google.com and country specefic google search. Otherwise just perfect.
