You cannot change it, you must setup ScreenTime and disable Siri WebSearch

May or may not be anonymized but if you click on Google stuff, its likely fair game. Not happy about this, I dont care about their default deals but they have no right to not allow your Siri searches to also respect your preference in search engine you've consciously decided on

Once again, very sneaky

I personally believe that trusting Apple with your privacy or preferances is naive. That wasn't and will never be their focus.

Isn’t this illegal in the EU? They just forced MS to offer alternative search providers for their search, so this is basically the same thing?

Why are you surprised that Apple won't let you change any default settings?
