I just changed my browser’s default to search to be StartPage.
Startpage is headquartered in the Netherlands, and supposedly does not collect ip addresses or your search history.
It uses the Google search database and provides results just as if it were done thru google search directly.
Its fairly much all I use.
As for Google being a nasty company -
It was reported last week that the FCC net neutrality vote was influenced by Google lobbying.
And recall that Obola, Hitlery and Dems in general have been lamenting the availability of information to us US subjects, that contradicted official Left wing narrative.
My guess is that the FCC’s hooks into governing the internet will one way or another give Dems just what they’ve wanted: An Internet Fairness Doctrine, ie: control over all online information, marginalize opposing points of view, disappear inconvenient facts.
Its 1984.
