I for one am not trusting this search engine for one bit
Since mid-2016, the company has started sending data to Microsoft Bing Ads, without informed consent of its users. It did not announce this to its users until mid-2021
@kindenough Thanks, I had no idea! I will pass this on to the person that made me aware of it!
No worries, I was interested in your post because I like a good search engine with respect to privacy of it's users, but when I read further into Qwant it all seems very shady from CEO to investors and not respecting privacy at all, only to inform users 5 years later of their partnership with Bing.
Have a good weekend, Lasairiona
@kindenough I'm currently using the Duckduckgo browser for 95% of my online stuff. Sadly it doesn't work with a lot of payment sites, so it's back to Chrome for that (I know Firefox has more privacy, I just never really got into it).
I also found Startpage recently, but they went the way of Qwant as well https://restoreprivacy.com/startpage-system1-privacy-one-group
Have a good weekend too!
