Anyone else stop using Google?
Imo they have become too intrusive for their size, with not enough responsibility for what they do.

Is there an alternative? Serious question. Mainly thinking in terms of an Internet search engine.
|
Do you use a Mac? :)

Search engines? Initially I'm experimenting with Bing (hahaha). Not as effective as google, but we'll see.
I have Macs, but my perspective is if you like Apple, what its competitors are doing is irrelevant. I do prefer the google browser, by far. thegunner, I'm not willing to enter that level of discussion. |
Firefox + Duck-Duck-Go.

FB worries me more than Google.

Safari and Start Page. F Google.

I hear the number one bing search is Google. I am sticking to Google. I haven't found them intrusive or invasive or whatever.

You have to assume intrusiveness to a certain degree when it comes to companies like Google, Apple, FB, etc. your information/habits are their power and assuredly their profit. I'm actually more concerned myself about the quality of the search engine. The search results are starting to feel like a bad mixture of what they think I'm looking for and what their advertisers are paying them to show. If you want to do some deep Internet searching, it doesn't feel adequate.

Imo, they provide a valuable free tool for everyone, and a necessary service for their customers. Their "size" is a reflection of that. |
Yes, I stopped using Google a while back because of their policies. I use Bing as a search engine. I'd have to say it's not as good as Google (too many irrelevant results), but most of the time it gets me what I'm looking for.

No, I like google products.
But I recommend everyone use Yahoo.... Help the stock go up so I can make a few bucks :hello: |
