Anyone reading this and thinking it’s a good idea; well, it’s not. Get the app in the article. Disabling Google Search is a dumb idea and will lead to many many performance issues, I can’t believe 12 people upvoted it.

Was “Explain to the world at large that I have no concept of what money is” the only item on your ToDo list, today? Because if it wasn’t, I’m kind of curious what the other items are. If there’s room, add the following to your list:

(Solve for X)

“X = Where Google gets the tens of millions of dollars it’s
required by law to pay its employees every month”

“X = Where Google’s obtained the billions of dollars it’s
spent on its physical infrastructure”

“X = Where Google’s obtained the billions of dollars it’s
paid out in dividends to investors”

“X = Where Google’s obtained the hundreds of millions – if not
billions – of dollars it’s paid for all the companies it’s purchased.”

Hint: “X” is the same for each problem and you’re probably a
part of it.

Yeah, those jerks! With all their damn software that we rely on every day, completely for free.

Correct, Google Now Swipe Disabler was removed, but my new app, Swipeup Utility has taken its place. You can get it here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.AdrianCampos.swipeuputility

Any known alternatives? (Ones that also do not require root access)

Google’s turned into the worst bunch of complete jerks I’ve ever seen.

And that sentence is 9 pejoratives shorter than it should be.

Would you mind updating the links?
Love the article, though! Thanks!

Totally worth it. I was almost at the point of sending back my LG G Pad 8.3 because of this annoying gesture. Or I’d install Gingerbread or buy an apple device. Whatever it takes to get shot of that google now bullsh!t.
