Thanks.
ixquick.com looks good.
I dumped FB the minute they started putting ads on my page. Not because of the ads but because I could see how closely they monitored my postings and had every interest of mine covered...Creepy!
I checked “startpage”. It says “enhanced by google”. What the heck does that mean?
There is a “DETAILS” button right below that notice!!
Thanks. As soon as I saw the word “google” I didn’t want to press any more buttons. They do look really adamant about user privacy.
Google is the government.
They are not affliated with Google. My understanding is that Startpage uses the Google search engine through a separate server (not tied in to google) then forwards the search results to you. Your IP information and other identifiers are not recorded by Startpage and Google only has the anonymous search info from Startpage. More info on the Startpage home page links.
