keeps em away from us to be fair

Not trying to do FUD and I work for a competitor, but I am a privacy person so I’ll provide some links and then it’s to you.

Ecosia’s privacy policy on the data they collect and process includes your IP address, search terms and session behavioral data

Qwant’s privacy policy seems better with most stuff you wouldn’t like only coming if you make an account. My only pause would be the Huawei relationship which is effectively FUD because there’s not really a reason (I just am not keen on this kind of partnership)

Once again, my opinion is going to be heavily biased here.
