Qwant is a really good search alternative - it's like Google used to be.

The same ruling bloodlines that control central banking, and therefore virtually *all* banking, and therefore every industry, are definitely far too confident in their own nonsense. Let them continue to wildly overplay their hand. Implosion is nipping at their heels. With so many people waking up to the fact that evil scumbag descendants of inbred royals have used socialism to create towering conglomerates made of other people's stolen ideas and companies, every day at the top is a deafening TICK TOCK.

However, have you noticed that search is rapidly moving from browsers to generative AIs, many of them smaller but nimble and readily able to compete with Google? And AI seems to lower the cost of innovation. And, so far at least, innovative environments have been competitive environments.

Yeah. That’s the one hedge against Google… but, it’s just as likely they’ll also come out on top in the AI search market too. 90% of traditional search is still going to translate to a high % of the AI search market. A bit like Meta they can afford to buy startups/hire the talent.
