Qwant - Search engine & tracker blocker by Qwant
Review by Bananenbiz
Rated 5 out of 5
by Bananenbiz, 2 years agoThey just released a new version, they took the extension off Mozilla Addons while it remained on Chrome. I guess they had to improve some things that required the extension to be temporarily disabled. I like this idea a lot: it's like Ghostery, but Qwant will not collect and sell your data to just anyone like Ghostery does.
Qwant will only place contextual ads under your search term (if your search term is for example "Tickets Disneyland Paris," they will put an ad above the results to earn a little money. They will do the same thing to anyone who searches for "Tickets Disneyland Paris"). This will keep your searches private and disconnected from one another, making profiling a lot harder. You won't be bombarded with Disneyland Paris ads. Unless you allow the cookies from the Disneyland website of course... But at least no one else besides Disney will know that you are looking this up. Perfect.

- Rated 2 out of 5by naitsirch, 4 months agoThis add-on blocks google tag manager and a script from googleoptimize.com. This breaks pages that rely on scripts that are loaded by gtm.
This blocking feature should be made optional! Currently I have to disable the add-on to use a contact form on a website. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14032377, 4 months ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Panayiotis, a year agoΗ καλύτερη μηχανή αναζήτησης και ένα πραγματικά τέλειο εργαλείο ιδιωτικότητας. Ένα μειονέκτημα μόνο οτι σαν μηχανή αναζήτησης δεν έχει το περιβάλλον στα Ελληνικά, αλλά τα αποτελέσματα είναι ΟΚ.

- Rated 1 out of 5by AwJa, a year agoBEWARE! They are now anti-ad-blocking, claiming the need for revenue. They are blocking use of the search engine completely, unless ad blocking is disabled. It is insane to believe that this solution will not rely on shared meta data, now. This is what typically happens right before this sort of thing sells out to the data brokers. It was great while it lasted, but I have no doubt that QWANT will soon collect and sell our data (no matter what empty promises they make, just as they all do.) I am sad to have to go broadcast to everyone I recommended them to over the last year or so that they should drop this immediately and find another way.
