Seems like a great idea for an additional search option other than google or yahoo. Definitely weary of google and how they track me.

Working great so far. Get the same search results as Google but don't have to sacrifice my privacy. It could use some more features like maps.

I just downloaded this and first impression so far is good. I like how easy it is to see how many tracking links are blocked and from what networks they come from. The search results are ok, similar to Google.
