For anyone wondering why Paraguay is the top country here, it has nothing to do with the National Security Agency but rather Nuestra Señora de la Asunción, a transportation/bus company in Paraguay.

Maybe people got lazy over time and tended to use the abbreviation?

Or maybe one can see a general decline of less popular terms due to the growth and change of the internet usage in the past 10 years? Imagine all those people who search for 'weather', 'email', 'facebook' etc.
