Maybe they will add searching Usenet. Google managed to screw up it's
Usenet search.

If they manage to do it correctly they might start eating some of
Google's lunch.

I've been using startpage for a couple of years now , but just tried out
ddg recently . One difference I see with ddg is that they suggest search
strings for you to refine your search . Some might not like that , some may
..

I've used DuckDuckGo for awhile, too. Google abuse
just keeps getting worse. I dropped them for most
searches when they started tracking clicks via corrupt
links. If you look at the returned links you'll see that
they now use Google as a proxy, so that Google can
track everything you click, even if you have script
disabled:
http://www.google.com/url?q=[the-real-link-here]&[server-side-tracking-code-here]

It sends you to Google, which then serves you the page
you asked for. There's no way to even know whether
Google is giving you an unadulterated page. They could
even be adding tracking bugs to pages.

I still use them occasionally, though. For most searches
any search engine works, but for the really tough ones
Google seems to be more accurate most of the time. When
I do use them I generally copy the link and then clean it
up before proceeding.

It sure doesn't get the most relevant hits yet.

Hi Oren,

I couldn't get the page to load. I use mail.zoho.com.
They swear they are private (encrypted). Unless I
can inspect the facility myself, I don't completely
trust it.

My solution is avoid sending private stuff through the eMail.
You can always encrypted an attachment. (Use the phone
to tell the other end what the key is. Don't eMail the key
to them. This is called "Out of Band" verification.)

Maybe you should wear a little tinfoil hat while you surf too?

That's an odd thing to say. Do you *like* being
spied on? Do you think people are nuts who don't
want to be spied on? If so, why? Or do you work for
Google?

Why would the NSA spy on me? I'm of no interest to them.

Most people who think they are being spied on by the NSA ***are*** nuts.

Google?


No, I'm not employed by Google or the NSA.

And if the government does decide to interrogate me, I hope they send Annie Walker.

that site was likely putup by the NSA in the hopes it attracts the kinda people who are of interest, like wanabee terrorists..........
