Note that information about your search habits can leak various ways, including but not limited to DNS, your browser, browser plugins, your operating system….

You should probably also mistrust any provider that claims to be maintaining your privacy if you have no way of verifying that. Depending on your level of commitment/paranoia there are various tools that you could combine, such as http://wiki.debian.org/FreedomBox. In fact, maybe we should see about doing a meeting on FreedomBox….
