How to deal with this? Search example:

    prevent URL tracking

Resulting URL:

    https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&source=hp&ei=jNIUXt3uKLmw0PEPiYSSqAQ&q=prevent+URL+tracking&oq=prevent+URL+tracking&gs_l=psy-ab.3...1648.1648..1831...0.0..0.118.118.0j1......0....1..gws-wiz.z1jymiS4QKg&ved=0ahUKEwjd5OvNk_LmAhU5GDQIHQmCBEUQ4dUDCAc&uact=5

All that's required:

    https://www.google.com/search?q=prevent+URL+tracking

Seriously?!
