New Search Engine Develops Tech to Display Uncensored Results Without Tracking User Data
The Epoch Times ^ | 12/9/2020 | Nicole Hao

Posted on 12/09/2020 12:31:27 PM PST by time4good

Today’s internet search engines have the power to track our personal data and decide what content can be listed as top results. Users are increasingly concerned that big tech companies have an outsized influence on the information they can view, while gathering enormous amounts of data through browser activity.

A group of American programmers has developed a new search engine intended to provide users with unbiased search results—without tracking the users’ IP, search history, and other information.

They named the search engine “Right Dao”—referring to Daoism and its philosophical pursuit of truth.

Right Dao developers have designed a new crawling and indexing method: The former referring to the process of scouring the internet for content, while the latter involves the storing and organizing of content found during crawling.

These newly developed techniques allow Right Dao to perform searches in an independent and uncensored manner, without relying on outside tools.

“We are a fully independent search engine. We have the infrastructure and built the technology from the ground up,” said Steve Smith, a developer at Right Dao. “[We] show the search results, free of manipulation.”

Have been with DDG for many years (since it first appeared)...

Selling what back to Google?

Could you direct me to an article somewhere?

I’ve been using DuckDuck Go just to avoid Google and the privacy issues.

Why?

Please explain.

If I’m a sucker...so be it. But I’d like to learn why so I can remedy the situation.

These scum. It is also known that even if you select a setting that indicates DO NO Track, it is at the discretion of the search engine company, not the user. Gee, I wonder what they decide!!?

go to the site, then click the three lines on right of firefox, choose ‘preferences’ then ‘home’ and select ‘use current page’ for the homepage- every-time you open up firefox, it’ll go to the search engine

I set an icon on my desktop to open up to a specific search engine, and i also set up my tabs to open to ‘top sites’ and have one of the sites linked to search

I don’t know how to switch ‘search engines’ to it though- there doesn’t seem to be an option

Put your shields down, Scotty, and accept that DuckDuckGo bent many of you over.

What are you talking about?

What are they doing?

Can’t you even give me a clue?

My searching (with other search engines) is giving me nothing.

Can you help?

The only thing I’ve found so far concerns privacy issues if someone else is using your computer, nothing related to what is sent over the internet. That says it’s encrypted.

I’m not concerned about anyone using my computer seeing anything, so that’s irrelevant to me.

Is there something else?

Well, I’m one of those suckers. I use DDG almost exclusively. Damn shame they’re doing this- if true.
