It’s both refreshing and unexpected to do a search in which the engine isn’t reading my mind.
To be sure, having it surmise the answers to my quest gave us a kind of short-hand familiarity that was almost intimate.
On the other hand, I felt the intrusion deeply when the search engine posted ads related to a recent forage as if it were unwilling to let go of what we had going.
So I have found DuckDuckGo which never finishes my sentences and sometimes gives me options far from my narrowest exploration.
I am obliged to hunt through the links they provide to bring me closer to my objective. Too often there’s a Reddit thread as part of their answer to my query.
As their ads promise, however, they won’t be “watching me.”
They also will not be building algorithms based on what I asked for yesterday.
Finally, a browser that doesn’t stare at me or stalk!
Commenting, a friend wrote: Good to know about the DuckDuckGo. My response: It’s not as helpful as Google cause it doesn’t track who I am.
