The core functionality of encrypted.google.com has been incorporated into the Google search homepage. Those visiting this URL after April 30, 2018 will be redirected to https://www.google.com.

ipv6.google.com then.

I am pretty sure google has some more subdomains to block.

You don't think Google doesn't link searches from the same IP address and user agent strings together even without a cookie?

Adblocker is great though.

I see Google have a business case for turning Google.com into an SPA...

That would only trap up the arms race. It would also rob Google of one of its advantages being its "simple" interface (although this is something they've been doing to themselves already by adding all sorts of unnecessary scripting to the search page - at least it still works with JS disabled, this in contrast to many other sites).
