SearXNG Privacy respecting search Recommend

[Member Xunzi_23]

Some info below, opposite to many popular search engines, very flexible, can be self hosted, open.
Can be used through Tor Network.

I use it in LibreWolf and UngoogledChromium.

Get started with SearXNG by using one of the instances listed at https://searx.space/

SearXNG may not offer you as personalized results as Google, but it doesn’t generate a profile about you.
SearXNG doesn’t care about what you search for, never shares anything with a third-party, and it can’t be used to compromise you.
SearXNG is free software, the code is 100% open, and everyone is welcome to make it better.

Very pleasant in comparison to some engines, results are not intentionaly intersperced with advertizing

You will quickly notice that duck duck go is blocking this engine quite often. Nothing new it also blocks MetaGer.

DDG has an agreement (business Agreement) with Microsoft, and it claims MS can not track users through the main search engine Bing.
MetaSearch with a main search engine contract. Who cares. They lied about no tracking in DDG Browser until caught.

This search engine is a promising suggestion, many thanks, Xunzi_23! You’ve forgotten to mention startpage.com next to MetaGer. Startpage also keeps your privacy, and even allows you to see parts of site contents from the search results list completely anonymously, whithout the target site able to track you. Some advertising is displayed in the first lines of Startpage, but not mixed and disguised in between the following listings of search results.

Windows is like a submarine. Open a window and serious problems will start.

Hi Robin,
startpage was left out on purpose, es gehört mehrheitlich ein Advertizing Firma, macht viel Tamtam um Privatsphere.
Claim: Wenn du mit Startpage suchst, bleibst du völlig anonym. When you search with startpage you are completely anonymous.
Which is impossible.

Nützt und Stützt Google Süche. Ist kein Metasearch Machine.

Registriert Keine IP Adresse, Setzt Kein Tracking Cookies ein.

Browser Fingerprinting, eine der nachfolge Techniken von Cookies wird nicht erwähnt.

Does encourage using second hand or older hardware,
some companies are affiliate linked.

Probably One of the better choices when Browser Isolation is practiced.

Certain Browsers for certain tasks can not stop your InternetProvider from tracking you
but makes complete profiles more difficult for others.

Anyone using Firefox without extensibe hardening, Chrome, Chromium, Edge, Vivaldi need not bother with
search privacy. After reading some criticism sniffing its connections I also mistrust Vivaldi.

Use FF ESR with CSS and extensive userjs. Sometimes Palemoon, mostly LibreWolf and UngoogledChromium plus
Tor which lets me read some Asian Geoblocked Press.

I have added sites to hosts and uBlock so unintentional or application background connections are unlikely.

Does that give me privacy, no, but is perhaps a slight annoyance to among others my IP, IPS are Level 1
intelligence Providers for all Eyes countrys.
