I do not mind paying, but not sure how it helps tracking: if you pay, they even know more about you than if you used google. So you have to believe them for not using the payment records for tracking you. They have valuable information about you; you are probably rich (who pays for search?!), you have a card so you are probably autonomous etc.
That said, more competition is good anyway in this space.
- estaseuropano 6y agoNot an anonymous search engine; their selling point is that you are the customer, not the product - so presumably no targeted ads. Although afaik google too does not sell profiling data, rather they sell access to highly speficic demographics.
- tluyben2 6y agoYes, but because it has your data (and more directly verified because it's payment data) it can turn into making your the customer later on when their shareholder want mo' money (which they will do).
