> “search the entire web”

TIL they allowed that before. It sounds a bit crazy. Like Google is inviting people to repackage google search itself and sell it / serve with their own ads.



You know, back in the days, the web used to be more open. Also - just because you CAN do something, doesn't mean you HAVE to.


It basically means that Google is now transitioning into a private web.

Others have to replace Google. We need access to public information. States can not allow corporations to hold us here hostage.


I tried it and contributed to searx. It didn't give the same result as Google, and it also have 10k request rate limit (per month I believe). More than that you'll have to "contact us"
