Default for the Tor project, which is a red flag imho. (single point of
trust is also single point of failure, Tor project is commonly considered
dubious among experts and has large code, lack of independent code
validation and huge government funding. It's offtopic to futher discuss it
here, just why I call it a red flag)
(1) Unless you can validate that they do it safely, they don't. (2) I
cannot validate startpage. Thus, startpage does not do it safely. Q.E.D.
If you disagree with axiom 1, buy a (truly) random box of pills, swallow,
post results (they should cure you even if you didn't know you're sick) (by
your logic, not mine!) (assuming authority is a fallacy, which is debatable
but so often true I'd rather not depend on it)
If you can invalidate 2, please do!
Is it better than just using Google? Yes. Maybe okay is still better than
okay. (Swallow random pills if you're dying and can't improve upon random)
It's also much slower than Google, but at least it's faster than duckduckgo
and actually returns results worth querying for.

Claims to use google and gives proxy option.
Any feedback?
(the number of results for some queries differ from google, might be country/IP related).
