I believe ncr doesn't really work for this purpose anymore as searching on google.com will give you results for the country you're in without redirecting you to a different TLD.

However you can set the region you want results for in your preferences. https://www.blog.google/products/search/making-search-result...

Preferences works in regular mode, but I've noticed I mostly browse in private mode these days. Opening a private browser window has just become a habit I suppose, and probably not a bad habit either.
