Can anyone prove that DuckDuckGo isn't CIA owned?

Wht about jeeves man that dude gives me the creeps

Jeeves is COINTELPRO.

DDG just uses google to search but doesn't retain records

Can anyone prove you're not CIA-owned?

You can't.

Would someone cia owned be living in their car?

Haha, it's a van actually

It is jew owned, so basically the same.

If you need a new email provider check out https://protonmail.com/ Just forward from the old account and gradually transition.

Any other potential alternatives?

Maybe https://tutanota.com/ or https://mailfence.com/en/ or https://kolabnow.com/ or https://posteo.de/en/site/about_posteo

Ooh nice. Thanks! Always curious to explore all the options

I did hear good things about Proton. So much that even Google tried to censor them out of their searches. There was some controversy surrounding that apparently so it seems they're doing something right if they got Google's attention!

Sounds like a honeypot. Hear me out, if i were the CIA and was thinking 5 steps ahead and was in charge of Google I would deliberately publicly attack a proxy puppet company. Thus making the alternative users online switch to a heavily censored search engine.

Plus Proton sounds fucking gay, like HIV positive aids gay

oh it's you again wanky danky

Hotmail.com. You can sign in from almost anywhere and update your status

lol

Oh and I almost forgot, you get 5gb of free storage from OneDrive!

5 whole gigs!😳

FYI they (ProtonMail) recommend you use the .ch domain over the .com for obvious reasons. ProtonMail.ch

Stupid guy here.

What’s the obvious reasons?

another stupid guy here that would like an answer to this question above. ^{^}

Since an official answer hasn't been given get by the original responder, I'll speculate that the China domain is likely hosted in China, one step removed from the .com US domain

oh u see, thank you for explaining.

.ch isn't China, it's Switzerland.

.com domains are subject to US Jurisdiction and laws. .ch domains are protected by Swiss privacy laws.

ch. not china. Switzerland baby.

.com easier to access by US officials

.ch harder to access by US officials

Furthermore, Switzerland is one of the most user private countries as far as laws go. This goes back over 100 years with their banks. They are always reluctant to release/give information to foreign officials about those doing business in their country.

Got one of these 2 years back when they were allowing first users to get one for free for a few years

Would using that site possibly send your emails to someone's spam folder?

It's possible, but they seem like a big operation that puts effort into preventing this.

No thanks.

Duckduck is Google

Actually, it's probably Apple's (read NSA). Actually.

its even more censored, fuck outta here

I'm walkin' here"

ez there wanky danky

switching from one american company to other dont change anything ... they all give your data to the government

Yes, let's send that data overseas, they are all benevolent.

see? now you know how we see it ... i am german

duckduckgo result is pretty similar to Google tho

because they source from google

the only think DuckDuckGo promises is that they do not track you or store your information

the only think DuckDuckGo promises

people who think they are smart in this sub think that duckduckgo is like their search engine savior, while it's just another google, with duck

ehh google suffers from the filter bubble. duckduckgo doesn't tailor your results based on the meta-profile they've created of you.

quack quack we are fucked said the duck

duck duck goose, you will be looking for the golden goose while they pile a bunch of ducks at yeah.

They source from Yandex and Yahoo, according to logos I've seen in the corners of their pages. Often they use a Yahoo version of Google Amp to serve up news articles

You might be thinking of Startpage which is a Google proxy with a similar premise.

Also switch to the Brave browser and use duck duck go search engine

And invest in BAT!

Switch to the browser that has an ad serving/user model built right into it.

Brilliant

Did Google do something recently to manipulate search results?

Duh

Care to elaborate on what they specifically did?

Who owns DuckDuckGo?

Gabriel Weinberg. A jew who made money selling peoples personal information on his other site that was the Names Database.

(((OMG the jooz!))))

Help help I'm being oppressed!

Larry David is CIA

Wait.. This might need to be at the top... Wtf are out other alternatives?

Startpage? I don't know who that's owned by

Looks like it's owned by a Dutch company.

Correct, it's called startpagina here, and it was the de facto homepage before Google became popular. Like, until 2006 or something, if my memory serves me well.

Start page only forwards your queries to Google so Google can't match your searches to your ip (unless you're using google) and it does the search through ssl so your is can't see it.

It's still Google

There aren't many really. Everything you do is looked at regardless by your internet provider. Want to actually drop off the face off the earth use TOR and go to coffee shops and libraries to use their Wi-Fi.

I've come to accept I don't have any real privacy but realize I'm not doing anything to attract attention. I can live with the personalized ads and junk mail.

That isn't really the problem though as I see it. You're right, 99% of us aren't doing anything that will bring the wrath of the deep state upon us. However, them having all of that info on us DOES allow them to manipulate anyone who later comes into a position of power or influence. How is anyone going to take a stand on important issues in public when they can retroactively assess your entire electronic life? I remember reading somewhere that Obamas entire family was marked for closer sureveillance back when he was a senator....

We have to drive home critical thinking skills to the youth. Only way for humanity to get out of this mess.

Not much critical thinking in this thread, you nailed it.

Have you ever imagined how rigged society will be in the years that follow? Do you realize how much political leverage has been produced by snapchat, whatsapp, instagram and facebook in the recent years?

Intimate vids, pics, conversations as well as access to anyone most deep secrets and private personal beliefs are being produced right now by teens and tweens right now.

Expect everyone to be a puppet whenever anyone with enough resources is out to get him, because they won't even need to try hard.

Or AT the top. As in before the headline...

Decentralized search engine.

Interesting concept...

Yeah, it's pretty cool. The only SEO that happens with this is what you implement yourself. I plan to set up a big media/bot server and run scripts siphoning stories, news articles, youtube videos, artwork, etc and hold it on my own hard drives. That way I can access the information whenever I want, as well as stream media from it to my home computer. And potentially even run Kolby with PseudoTV so I can download movies and TV shows, set up my own channels and playlists, and stream them constantly like my own television station.

Days without Jewish tricks = 0

https://i.imgur.com/pWyXCZl.jpg

Hahhahaa so Israel is a Jewish state, shocker

How about you blame the people who made Google/Facebook instead of just blaming Jews? Imagine we'd blame a group of people for every single bad thing a person belonging to the group did, we'd have at least World War 5 by now.

Because they are jews as well. It's always the jew. Every goddamn time.

No, it's not. That's like saying every black person is a criminal, every Mexican sells cocaine, every Russian drinks Vodka, etc. Quit with the stupid stereotypes. Also, Google was founded by two people, one of which wasn't a Jew. Apple, far worse than Google, was also founded by a non-Jew. Hitler wasn't a Jew. Stalin wasn't a Jew. I could go on..

But if you wanna really blame someone, blame capitalism and 'Murica, seems like all this shit is coming directly out of their sewers.

Are you a jew?

Yep. Ain't gonna lie about who I am. The question is, why is that a problem?

Well no surprise there. Not that I'm surprised, become quite good at spotting you people.

Spotting us? We're not hiding. But you still didn't answer my question: Why is that a problem? We're in a /r/conspiracy subreddit right now, this is a place for freethinkers, so then, let's discuss it like civilised people. I assure you I had nothing to do with Google or Facebook, I'm also an Atheist and a Communist (just in case you believe all Jews are greedy).

I do not waste time talking to jews.

Wowser. You're as bad as Jihadists. You've been brainwashed by this shit so much you're actually using Nazi quotes to escape conversation. Sigh...And here I thought I was talking to a person rather than a monkey...

Jihadists

Oy vey... can't call him nazi/racist because he doesn't care.... need to call him muh islamist terrorist. JIDF needs to really create new arguments or it'll be like annuda shoah! But I'll still try trow in a bit of muh nazi cards.

Yeah...I don't speak like that. Also, I am not calling you a Nazi because you aren't one. You're a pretender, a wannabe, call it what you will. As far as I'm concerned you're nothing more than an uneducated manchild.

Let me remind you you're literally quoting the propaganda minister. It was his JOB to brainwash idiots like you.

No it was his job to educate the world on the jew.

No, education is handled by the minister of education. Propaganda is handled by the minister of propaganda. The fact that you're confusing education with propaganda shows how brainwashed and stupid you really are.

The fact that you're pushing zionist propaganda as the truth is funny.

Where did I push Zionist propaganda exactly? I'm not even a Zionist myself.

This is the only power you will have in life you’re probably a incel too awwww poor baby.

You aren’t good in spotting anything He practically almost spelled it out

You are both wrong, we should be blaming Zionism

What does Zionism have to do with Google or Facebook?

Zionism is the public face of the NWO conspiracy theory. Controlling public perception in the US is a Zionist agenda. Our foreign policy is a Zionist agenda. It is bigger than just Israel, it is Rothschild and Soros all of their missions.

You do know DuckDuckGo directly supports Tor. Odd racism managed to got in there. NameDatabase was a small, relatively unsuccessful social network and he sold it, business 101. If you read the full wiki it states they complied with spam opt outs(so the site wasn't just a dirty operator) and also required minimal information for sign up so even in selling it's not like they had a trove. There is no reason to not consider DuckDuckGo as a viable private search, if they sell then like all things reacess.

You do know DuckDuckGo directly supports Tor.

Doesn't change anything since most people don't use Tor.

What is to be changed? I don't see a problem. Their nearly 10yr track record is a good thing. I just mentioned Tor as it's a hat nod to the type of operation they run.

I'm a bot, bleep, bloop. Someone has linked to this thread from another place on reddit:

• [/r/topmindsofreddit] We need new (((search))) (((engine))). And new (((Jew))) sites. When will you cucks learn.

^{If you follow any of the above links, please respect the rules of reddit and don't vote in the other threads. (Info / Contact)}

Oh no look out for the scary jews!!! Their coming to get you!!!!!

It seems that Duck Duck Go's results are very similar to Google.

They use Google's API, don't they?

It would be great if there was an alternative to Google on Android.

Cyanogenmod / Lineage OS is android you can run with no google services or the play store. There's also a liberty focused OS I forget the name it's only for a few android phones so far.

I'm trying to use duckduck but very often researches are not really satisfying and I need to use Google to find what I was looking for

That's because duckduckgo sucks.. pretty sure everyone has tried other search engines in the past, there's a clear reason Google has won, while other search engines haven't evolved since we last tried them.

I'm upset about the Google search algorithm changes, but not because of not being able to find conspiracy theories, look up second shooter, false flag.. it's all still there.

I'm upset because people uploading original content, videos that haven't been edited.. are hidden under a sea of news stories. That I give zero fucks about.

Why does duckduckgo advertise so hard here? This is something I have been following for a long time.

Why won't the moderators address this gross advertising?

Then edit the original post with the new information and links to sources. Help illuminate the truth when people use summary ciew or just look at OP's textbox.

Ditch gmail, move to tutanota or proton.

Ditch Chrome, move to Vivaldi browser.

use startpage, or yahoo

How about smartphone and desktop (hardware and OS)?

I do use duck duck go and not google.

r/conspiracy

Delete Chrome. Move to Brave.

Safari.

Lets just all go back to netscape.

Ddg is just as censored and ad infected as google, with less functionality. Also, we have nothing but their word that they don't track.

it's true, they're somehwat open source but hide the guts.

Really, the only alternative is to ditch the pixel array altogether and go full reality.

I'm using a VPN that does not log traffic, peerguardian and DuckDuckGo as my search engine. If I prefer to be extra cautious I'll use TOR browser, tho it runs a little slow.

But how do I know that DickDuckGo wasn’t created by the NSA so that it would be easier to track everything you search because they know that people who are paranoid will use it???

Done

Why don't WE THE PEOPLE actually do something? We should be finding ethical developers and all of us should raise millions of dollars to create an uncensored search engine since people are saying DuckduckGo is owned by some Jew who has sold information before.

There is so many people who feel the same way as us that we can virtually start any new product or service we want if we all gave like $5 usd.

Ethical developer here currently working on reddit clones. Put me on a list I'm down to help.

We should make a uncensored hybrid between youtube and reddit. A tube site with entire forumd and channels.

The only think you'd need to censor to make it big would be porn and videos of people getting shot in the head lol. Anything else political or controversial is open game. Oh you find a video about Zionism that is offensive to you? Well too fucking bad. People should be able to be their own judge of what appears to be the truth.

Not a bad idea, the kids love videos. I wonder if Amazon would allow "hate" videos into their cloud or if they'd ban you. It would be expensive to host but it could be done.

Liveleak is okay but Bestgore is where you want to go for the insane shit. I was just thinking no hardcore gore for the same reasons you wouldn't put hardcore porn on there. I'd want it to appear family friendly. Who's gonna let their 12 year old daughter go on a tube site to check out the latest Taylor Swift video if they know it shows porn? Wouldn't you need that family demographic to actually survive and make the website popular worldwide?

I basically want a YouTube where any conspiracy, political opinion and anything else "controversial" can still be monetized and not be censored.

I'm in IT as well. I think YouTube has an amazing platform. The problem is they're a bunch of propaganda, censoring, anti-liberty scumbags who wish it was 1984.

I see, you want to directly compete with YouTube and replace it. That's a noble mission. Maybe with a not for profit corporate structure you could help to guarantee it stays apolitical. I imagine there's YouTube like open source video platforms out there all ready to go, or you could change reddit around and allow on-site uploads and maybe only have a video post type.

There's DTube which is gaining a little traction. I just feel they need change the whole UI and just make it look much better to get this migration started.

Yeah let's both think of some ideas. I think we can definitely find people who would like to help get something up and running. If everybody who feels the same as us donated $5 you could easily launch a really good platform.

Nice, it is running on Steem. It looks like it's off to a decent start although yeah the UI like the home page is still a little meh. Hadn't heard of IPFS for file storage, that sounds cool. And playback is smooth!

I will think about this some. Maybe we should be contributing to DTube. If you ever want to get a project together, make a post and I'm sure everyone will come running out of the woodwork to help.

Doesn't duck duck go use Google's search algorithims?

I think we should do more than that. I say we look at their ads and then boycott the products being advertised.

How about a full BDS-US where we boycott all MIC associated products?

Also use Firefox with ublock/umatrix/privacy badger/noscript.

Dont use any Chromium based browser (Google Chrome, Opera, Brave)

Firefox just announced they're getting into fake news censorship :(

So? The browser does not track usage like Chrome/Chromium does.

It's a step up from Chrome, for sure. Alas I cannot ignore anyone's politics.

"This is the impenetrable banality of 'don't be evil'. They believe that they are doing good. And that is the problem." -Julian Assange, Google Is Not What It Seems

Google chrome is awesome for porn. Only time I load it up is for a good want. I have never used it to search anything else

Brave is also a very good browser!

I have a Google pixel phone. How do I delete that?

:(

Except DuckDuckGo sucks as a search engine and I don't believe their whole "we are the nice guys" narrative.

Why am I supposed to believe that?

I remember another company who passed a similar line. It was "Don't be evil". We all saw how that worked out.
