>>106519292>UK Based>PrivacyGlowie thread.
>>106519292DuckDuckGo is a no go..bad suggestion!
>>106519361why are people here obsessed with this, you think federal agents care about your mundane life? or care enough to shill bad software here? no, these are just the only offerings that are popular or exist. if you disagree you could post alternatives, but you can't, because you are lazy/stupid or because they do not exist. so it is easier for you to meme about being in a spy novella
>>106519292never heard of myallsearch - results looks pretty good. Reckon it feeds it from google and bing
>>106519292>A UK-based search engineLMAO

>>106519983*boooo* don't quit the day job
>>106520048your boos mean nothing to mei've seen what makes you cheer
>>106519292Lmao at NordVPN being recommended. They're pozzed as hell and keep logs, and will even report to your ISP if you use it for shit like piracy. Try AirVPN for an actually good no-logs VPN
Are there any good and free email providers? I'm sorry but I ain't paying a monthly fee for email.I was thinking of switching to iCloud or maybe infomaniak, are they good options?
>>106520203Proton or mail.com
>>106519292Thanks for this. I live in the EU and we're about to be living in 1984 in a few weeks because they're bringing in mass surveillance (officially it's meant to catch child predators, but they will be scanning literally everyone's private messages even if there's zero suspicion of them being a pedo). I want to try and lock down my privacy as much as I can before Chat Control is implemented.

NordVPN being recommended?!? They're pozzed as hell and keep logs, and will even report to your ISP if you use it for shit like piracy.
>>106519292>MyAllSearchquit shilling this shit, it uses google CSE in the background, exposing your searches to google directly. It's complete horse shit

Please for the love of god please never use "Mojeek". There was a data breach a few years back and exposed a lot of information. Just stay clear! Iv'e switched to smartpage
>>106524355Mojeek (aka Moshiiiit) is absolute trash, like DuckDuckGo, Gibiru and most others. Full blown propaganda and censorship of Orwellian degrees.
> Mojeek = CrapIt was bad a few months ago when I would get low quality results at the top and sometimes not what I was looking for at all, but the results are getting worse. I agree with the comments above, don't waste your time with it.
>>106524355>smartpagehttps://desuarchive.org/_/search/text/smartpage/hey, its you OP. Again. You're the only one who makes this fucking typo shilling around myallsearch. Why are you such a shill? Are you from israel?
>>106519292>NordVPNAre you joking? "In 2018, a data breach occurred at a third-party data center that NordVPN used, resulting in unauthorized access to one of its servers in Finland. The breach, which likely happened in March 2018, was caused by a poorly secured remote management system."Enough said

>>106519292>DuckDuckGo: A widely-used, US-based search engine that prioritizes anonymity.How legit is DDG in 2025? I remember thinking they were sketchy a number of years ago.
>>106524474>brave and firefox are compromised>DuckDuckGo is russian Op>proton.mail is not secure KEKsource: it was revealed to me in a dream
>>106524568It works great over Tor and they have two javascript versions (Lite and HTML). The results are basically a proxy for Bing which is the only other decent index outside the Google ecosystem. Search bangs like !w and !yt are also super convenient. I don't really see what's not to like about it.
>>106525346While I don't remember the details, I vaguely recall there being some controversy surrounding their privacy policies a number of years ago.
>>106525303>>proton.mail is not secure KEK>source: it was revealed to me in a dream>Proton VPN has installed servers in Tel Aviv to enhance connectivity for users in the region, particularly for those in North Africa and the Middle East.
