Search engines |
Mojeek
Our default search engine at our company. It behaves as a search engine should, rather than tries to second-guess your queries. It has a growing index and, based on our research, it’s bigger than Bing’s. And unlike Google, it really doesn’t track you at all (that also makes it one up on so many other search engines that claim they don’t, yet do)
