Qwant is based in Europe, so no matter what future qwant might decide to do, they will always be bounded by European legislation.

  If they don't track any user data and have an excellent reputation then why would I care about legislation?

    They could be legally obliged not to link to certain pages, depending on your geography. They also could have harder time linking to news sources. They may have some advantages by not being bound by US legislation, though, but I can't easily name any such advantage.

    Because qwant, at some point in the future, can't suddenly decide that "not tracking users" gets in the way of business opportunities and retract their stance on privacy.

      Then I'll switch services. And neither of those seem to be because of regulation.
