Try using a Google+ account. That way, Google can learn about you, and it doesn't need to resort to "popular" search results.

So the solution is to have your privacy invaded? Count me out.

You want a company to omnisciently select from billions of webpages the most appropriate result for you.

You refuse to tell them anything about yourself.

That's not having your privacy invaded, that's wanting to have your cake and eat it too.

No, I don't want omniscience. I want them to actually match the fricking keywords I give them. Is that too much to ask in these days of privacy invasion for profit?

Yeah, I don't want search results based on my personality just gimme the facts!

I want the most appropriate results for my search text, not me.

It's a human language question, not an FMRI.

You could use different user profiles to protect yourself from excessive privacy invasion.

Because it isn't like Google love to share data between services and cross reference user activity or something, is it? Oh, wait...
