Does Google allow searches from Tor network? Last I heard it didn't.

There are search engine(s) specialized for TOR. As per Wikipedia[1]: 'Ahmia is a clearnet search engine for Tor's hidden services'. It was part of Google summer of code in 2014[2].

Cool, been looking for something like this. However, it should be noted that this is not what parent asked about. Parent was wondering if Google was usable for regular web searches using a client that came from a Tor exit node via the Tor network.

It does, but you will have to go through captchas regularly.

In my experience, unless you get lucky with your node it'll just throw an infinite captcha loop at you.

Disconnect.me wraps Google and is bundled in the for browser.

No capchas.
