DuckDuckGo a search engine you can explore with the new experience, they don't track you thus its privacy free.

DuckDuckGo is an Internet search engine. It uses information from crowd-sourced sites (such as Wikipedia) to augment traditional results and improve relevance. The search engine policy emphasizes privacy and does not record user information.[2] The company is based in Valley Forge, Pennsylvania.
Some of the code of DuckDuckGo is free software distributed at GitHub under Perl 5 license.

DuckDuckGo is a great search option. I use to use something similar to this before Google became famous. The one that I used was DogPile.

I've been using this search engine with FF for a couple of months in an effort to enhance my online privacy, and ween myself away from Google.

Here you go Qrobe.it Search Engine: http://qrobe.it/

It´s great and similar the Privatelee.

I look with careful Duckduckgo and i think it was a amazing choise because keep far dangerous internet acess.

You can select for a home page as opposed the Google.com and offer many security tools against devil intruders hackers.

He´s suggest extensions who protect the security of laptop like:
-DoNotTrackMe
-HTTPS Everywhere
-BetterPrivacy for Firefox
-Disconnect
-Ghostery
-AD Block Plus

is worth not having the extension flag...

Personally I don't think any search engine can match Google. Yes I know there's privacy concerns with Google, but it's the best search engine available imho. I understand why people try to steer clear of it due to privacy. My question is if you avoid Google for privacy reasons where does it all stop? Do you only use vpn's or tor? Do you stop using windows and switch to linux to protect privacy? Do you stop shopping online? Trust me if organizations such as the NSA want to track your web browsing there's not a fat lot you can do about it. For me, getting rid of Google would be cutting my nose off to spite my face.

I like using "DuckDuckGo". I find I like switching back & forth between Ixquick/Startpage & DuckDuckGo. Would there be more privacy using the HTTP/SSL Google search engines?
