    Or better yet, ditch Google altogether.

      FWIW, wp:Category:Internet search engines.

      I switched to Startpage, an EU-based search engine.

        I’ve been using startpage, but doesn’t it still rely on google results somehow?

        Yes! Startpage rocks hard. I wish Safari would let it be the default search engine (FF does with a simple plug in).

        Not EU based, and not free, but I’ve been loving Kagi.

          Seconding Kagi, it’s worth every penny.

          Well, I’m glad. That being said, Startpage is a search engine located in the Netherlands that you can start using now. Just go to the site. Kagi is paid.

        Startpage! No shit. Used to be Ixquick, and I used that for years. Great site - thank you for reminding me it’s still there. :)
