The Blacklight results come up exceptional compartively, 1 tracker, 1 cookie, and it’s easy to block Google. It doesn’t do that over accounts or sessions however, and that is a quite positive attribute. Thanks for the awareness on that though, for everyone. I always advise to use a blocking browser. I guess overall I see the best-in-class results to be worth it every once in a while.

You mentioned Cromite for Android, isn’t that conflicting? Cloudflare is the #1 MITM privacy destroyer so that’s great too. I’ll have to check under VPN.

Could I get your recommendation for what you would advise for a private search engine that has acceptable results?

Good info overall, thanks for this comment.

I’m not sure what you mean by this

You mentioned Cromite for Android, isn’t that conflicting?’

For search I use Searx, https://4get.ca/, and https://trystract.com/
