Big search engines like Google and Bing are known to track what you search and share that info with advertisers, which is why a lot of people don’t feel totally free to search whatever they want anymore.

Here are a few I’ve come across. I’d love to hear what others are using too!

DuckDuckGo – Great for simple, untracked searches
Startpage – Delivers Google results without the profiling
Brave Search – Strong privacy with its own independent index
MyAllSearch – Clean interface with a focus on user privacy
Qwant – GDPR-compliant, with servers based in Europe
Yandex – Russian based search engine, has it's own crawler
