A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
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.

MODERATORS
When it comes to search engines, I value not only privacy, but supporting independent indexes ans avoiding Google's monopoly.
Ddg is working in this aspect, so I consider them to be ok.
Don't they take search results from bing?
Edit: Correct me if I'm wrong
They do, partially. Nowadays they have their own scraper too.
Like already mentioned, they still do, in addition to other sources, but they're also developing their own index.
