Dilemma at all: Privacy or Quality of searches?

Its really hard since Google provides so far the best algorithm when searching through keywords and very easy to remember the website Google.com when we wanted to check for something since it combine everything.

But we all know there's alternative which secure and powered by Google however it will take a long time for anyone to make adjust on the habit, cause it makes our task easier when done by Google itself.
