Yup. Start by not using Google's search engine. Use DuckDuckGo, instead.

Duckduck is definitely a good start, but keep in mind it just anonymizes Google search for you. Brave, Quant, Mojeek and more have indexed their own databases. We need entirely different setups to get around Google's massive censorship and opinion shaping algos that Duckduck cannot bypass. Searx is also interesting as it allows you to choose from a large list of different search engines.

I thought that Duckduck Go used Bing and the one who anonymizes Google is Start Page, or both do that?

[–] opt9@feddit.ch 0 points 1 year ago

Its the other way around. Startpage uses Bing.
