I learned about startpage recently.
(www.startpage.com)
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.

much thanks to @gary_host_laptop for the logo design :)
Startpage was bought by an advertising company. I suggest to not bother with that search engine anymore.
Damn! Why do the good die young? Thanks for sharing, I'll give it a miss.
It wasn't young, it's been around a long time
Everything needs money to run.
That's true but we're here at privacy@lemmy.ml so people here only care about the privacy aspect and not how companies finance their services. If you still wanna use Startpage and risk your privacy then go for it.
It's fine, start page still has control over their search engine, system 1 just takes some profit. The privacy policy is also distinctly different to the ad tech company
