I’ve no idea how I overlooked Mojeek. I’m always on the lookout for privacy oriented alternatives. Seems they exist since 2004 and don’t have any controversies surrounding them.
- UK-based
- no-tracking privacy policy
- independent search index
- first search engine to implement a no-tracking policy in 2006
- operates its own web crawler
- infrastructure in a green data center in the UK
- business model based on advertising, API’s and partnerships
I haven’t used Mojeek, so I can’t speak to that, but the UK has some of the worst privacy protections and mass-surveillance anywhere. They’re also part of the Five Eyes, so I wouldn’t count the fact that they’re UK-based as a point in their favor.
I use mojeek. It’s good enough for me, image search sucks though
Edit: ups
I sue mojeek
plz do not sue us
I just tried it out using the same search string that I’d, just prior, run on the goog:
how many permutations of 9 digit number
Results were not encouraging.
thanks for flagging this, will get it raised
