That is certainly not privacy...

Certainly not Google. :-) If the IP is the only issue I'd send it via
one or more of the various proxies I use. I have a variety of
locations to choose from, and could use one or more of them enough
times so that there would not be an 'anomaly' if I used it while I was
at a desert training camp. :-). Cost is $0 to $a few/mo, and most are
easy to set up. MUCH more private/secure than Google, for a variety of
reasons.
