It seems like only the frontend is open-source, correct me if you find the back end code and if it is under AGPL license

Very based

Qwant is just a bing frontend with a bit better privacy, bit they still share some of tour informations:

Why are you transferring data to Microsoft, and what data is it?

Microsoft provides some of the search results you see on our pages, and provides ads to the keywords in your search inquiry. This means that we need to send Microsoft some information related to your search that allows our partner to return results and ads relevant to that search, and to prevent fraudulent clicks or other activities that are not permitted by our Terms of Use.

In order to detect fraud, Qwant uses a specialized service offered by Microsoft, which does not have access to the keywords of your search. Only your IP address and the browser (your “User Agent”) are communicated to this specialized service to calculate a fraud probability score. Keywords are sent separately to another service that does not know your IP address.

Also, the results are Bing’s so they are biased.

Overall, It’s your choice, bit qwant may ne not the best for results and privacy

It doesnt work with VNP and Tor, I’d choose Whoogle or LibreX as Google frontends, you can selfhost them and they’re open source

Bugswriter is a chad, ha also built a script called tuxi that was really cool, but sadly now it’s deprecated

It only gives minimal and “classic” sites, you can also add it on searxng

LineageOS isnt degoogled by default

Ahah now they have a rugged iphone 6. Thank you for sharing your experience.

Oh yeah that’s great to hear

Oh wow, I didn’t know that, thanks for the advice!

What os are your running on your pixel?

I understand, everyone has his standards.

… for ye Oh no kanye west, AGAIN!

It is owned by an advertising company, the same as expressvpn for what I now, so I dont trust it…

Edit: I checked, PIA was aquired by Kate Tecnologies which also owns ExpressVPN and the owner also has a gambling company. I would rather use Mullvad, because you can pay with monero or cash, but the best solution would be hosting your on vpn in a vps

The best for privacy are: Tails, that runs on live-cd; Whonix, which you run in vms; Qubes, which is an os that runs all your user programs inside vms (running whonix inside qubes is the most powerful privacy setup).

Sorry, can you explain?
