"Every time you go to most search engines, when you go to them and you enter a search, that search is trapped. And all the information is then turned to advertisers who are then bidding for the top spot so they can get your attention,"
"Privacy is not just about hiding. Privacy is about, it's like there's a basic level of human dignity that, you know, we walk around and we're not wearing everything about us on our sleeves at all times,"
Multiple search engines offer privacy-focused alternatives that limit or eliminate tracking, encrypt queries, and reduce advertiser targeting. DuckDuckGo does not track users and encrypts searches to prevent ISP visibility. Startpage has provided private search since 2006, avoids collecting personal information, and offers an Anonymous View for visiting sites without revealing identity. Brave Search uses its own index alongside a privacy-oriented browser. Swisscows filters family-unfriendly content, provides AI summaries, and previews sites in anonymous windows showing tracker counts. Kagi provides an ad-free, customizable premium search with a free trial and paid plans starting around five dollars monthly.
