Well for most part I think this is good, encrypting user searches can do little to prevent our Information reaching any 3rd party. But this also scares me that google can still decrypt the encrypted searches.
Its not like your using TOR, atleast then you can be sure that you're Information will & cannot be revealed at the other end. But this 'Encryption' can be undone by Google if and when a user violates its dynamic and poorly maintained terms of service.

In the end this doesn't matter if you take your privacy seriously.
Google has the key to decrypt these searches anyway, and will turn over
that data to the government, ad agencies, and etc. If they can make some
profit or get some favors thrown their way.
Don't forget:
Google is evil, your data
is Google's Product.
