Don't confuse the tards dear.
They think they aren't using Google with those searches.

How are both of those for genealogy research? That's the only thing I use google for because BING is almost useless for those kind of searches.

It is but it doesn't track your searches and add ads to your browsing for products or questions that you searched for.

I use Searx as a search engine and Ungoogled Chromium as a browser.

privacytools.io and prism-break.org are great resources also

Re: Google - why would anyone still use it?
Anyone know of a search engine that will actual give you ALL results for a search? Google used to but no more.

Example - if I search the name "Kupakei" I may only get a couple of pages of results. But, add another name into the search like, "Kupakei Alapai" and up pops a ton more results containing Kupakei. Why didn't they pop up in the first search?

And, the search results are always mixed with pages that have zero connection with my search.

Damn irritating! huffy

All the links past page 2 are either in Hawaiian or some other language. Thing is, if I add another name to the search, even if unrelated, I get more English results with Kupakei. That particular name is just an example. Ghost in the machine messing with me? I am researching a kapu (forbidden) Royal oral genealogy.
