Search engines besides (((DuckDuckGo)))? (technology)
submitted 6.7 years ago by jewd_law
Been using JewJewGo search engine until I found out the owner (((Gabriel Weinberg))) has a sordid history when it comes to privacy, no surprise there. What do you Voats use? I've already switched to Opera and Waterfox. Thanks in advance.

It's a search engine that uses other search engines, but you can allow/disallow certain ones like google, wikipedia, etc. and it doesn't track you.
It even lets you download the source code if you wish.

Shit. thanks for the heads up, that's a bummer. If there's anyone who lacks complete ethics it's the chinese.
