Comment(by phobos):

 I guess I don't fully understand what you're trying to do then. I thought
 we were move the check.tpo page locally, but with a remote "tor or not"
 check which fed into the local page for "success/fail" status. I can see
 how the leftmost info box is irrelevant if we aren't passing back the exit
 country to the user on the local page.

 As for the search box vs. other infoboxes, are we trying to emulate other
 browsers out there? or to provide some quick links into tor docs to
 explain tor and how to use it for users? Maybe we include the short user
 manual locally linked too for the docs, and "learn more" points back to
 the website docs.

 I don't really have a strong bent for DDG or SP, as frankly, both of them
 censor the results by default with "adult content filters".
