[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 92963, post: 972744"] By disabling javascript on [*.]startpage.com (chromium based browsers), you won't see the advertisements of Startpage. In Dutch we say "you can look for nails on low tide", meaning nothing is perfect and you can always find something to comment or criticize on, but it is better IMO when you know how a company generates its income (e.g. Brave with an alternative advertising scheme, Opera with is mobile advertising and payment services). I did a quick check on my bookmarked websites to see which trackers were caught by this extension with Edge tracking protection on Default (Firefox anti-tracking will probably give similar results, since both are based on Disconnect), to see which trackers this extension caught extra. I checked the blocked domains, but they were all listed in my own Kees1958 blocklist.
