Good alternatives are still DuckDuckgo (is subject to US-law) or with regards to European data protection regulations, the French search machine Qwant. - 评分 1 / 5来自 fromCharCode,5 年前Startpage cannot be considered protecting your data anymore, since they are sold to system1 - a company earning money with personalized advertisement.
DO NOT USE THIS SEARCHENGINE! - 评分 1 / 5来自 Firefox 用户 13869129,5 年前Habe startpage lange benutzt. Leider wurde es verkauft an ein Datensammelunternehmen! Sehr traurig. Wollen die ehemaligen Betreiber, die uns mit Datenschutz angeworben haben, mit dem Geld für den Verkauf jetzt glücklich werden oder wollen sie nur nach Kohle stinken???

- 评分 1 / 5来自 dalgadoq,5 年前Absolute garbage - can't use Startpage.com in browser after installing. BREAKS STARTPAGE IMHO
- 评分 1 / 5来自 Firefox 用户 15491152,5 年前Been a long term user of Startpage. I did NOT expect this to happen! I have removed this add on and. of course, I do not use and will not ever use Startpage again. The previous review posted a source link, as I cant stress this enough for people who are still using Startpage or considering to do so, please reconsider!
I will sign my review by posting the source link too: https://reclaimthenet.org/startpage-buyout-ad-tech-company/ - 评分 1 / 5来自 Firefox 用户 15247888,5 年前Been bought by a click advertising company you've flushed your integrity down the drain. Go figure why I uninstalled.

- 评分 1 / 5来自 Firefox 用户 15191256,5 年前Look how active Startpage have been replying to the comments and questions, and now its been totally quiet here.
Startpage, who promised "real privacy" have after all this years partnered with the ad-company System1 (I think anyone understand that they are anything but privacy friendly) something i did not expect to happen, not with Startpage, but i (and many others) was wrong.
Dear Startpage, you proved yourself being a scam. Users trust is hard to gain, now when letting your true shady fake face shine, you dont deserve any trust whatsoever. - 评分 1 / 5来自 Firefox 用户 15207646,5 年前
- 评分 1 / 5来自 Mattew,5 年前Also a long time Startpage fan. Its really sad and a big surprise. I did not expect Startpage to take this path. RIP Startpage.

- 评分 1 / 5来自 liz,5 年前Longtime fan of Startpage. This is truly concerning and sad. I’ve gotten emotionally so invested in Startpage,often even recommending it to people over DuckDuckGo these days and their anonymous view was also quite a great feature.
Startpage has been around for many many years, I would never have expected this to happen, to be honest. - 评分 1 / 5来自 Firefox 用户 15399253,5 年前Startpage - Take back your privacy by using Startpage.com. High quality search results without ads.
And sold to a ad company by the name System1 ?
Maybe you can consider changing the extension and the promising words? Its pretty misleading for being a "Private Search Engine" without trackers and ads, that now are sold to System1, one of the bigger ad crap companies out there.
A shame really. - 评分 1 / 5来自 Firefox 用户 15312985,5 年前The latest update requires "access to all tabs." I don't care WHAT new functionality you were trying to add or that you're "actively pursuing other options," you should have WAITED until you found another option BEFORE you pushed an update out.

发布于 5 年前IMPORTANT UPDATE ON PERMISSION REQUEST REMOVAL
Over the last few days, Startpage has received valuable feedback regarding our recent extension update and valid concerns around our request to view browser tabs. We realize that users understandably would prefer not to allow such permissions. As privacy advocates committed to serving our community, the team made it our highest priority to address this issue.
Effective immediately our extension will no longer request access to browser tabs for existing and new users. See version update here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/startpage-privacy-search-engin/versions/
We appreciate all feedback and ask that you continue to openly communicate with us. Please feel free to reach out directly by email at support@startpage.com, by Twitter @StartpageSearch, or on product review sites. We review these daily and look forward to hearing from you. - 评分 1 / 5来自 Firefox 用户 15315459,5 年前I do not agree to the new 'access to tabs' permission being forced just for what? 'opening a marketing page'? is this an early april fools' joke? removed and will not install again, even if I might use your search engine for a few months before someone more reasonable comes along (with ublock, how else?).

Your opinion and feedback are important to us. We do our best balancing ease of use for new users and maintaining legacy functionality for our current users. We understand your decision regarding the extension. One simple solution to continue to search in private with Startpage is to manually set it as your default search engine in Firefox (instructions below). Moreover, we’d like to apologize for not alerting you before the change. We’re sorry and have learned an important lesson. Please feel free to share more at support@Startpage.com.

Thank you for using Startpage. The request to view tabs is only applicable in the initial install process, in order to pass a marketing page URL from add.startpage.com to confirm a successful installation. However, to enable that feature, we had to request users allow access to the tabs. Once install is complete, we NEVER look at your tabs, so we are actively pursuing other options to grab that URL without needing access to tabs. - 评分 1 / 5来自 Firefox 用户 15311180,5 年前Wants permission to see all tabs. No idea why it would want that. "Privacy"

I could not find source code or description why it would require it.
