Google censors more than just autocomplete. Ohhhhh, yes they do. They censor and limit search results.

There was a time when you could search something like, “the eagles filetype:mp3″ and find mp3 files from all over the web from The Eagles.

But not anymore. Google disabled that filetype search, even though you could use it to search for legit mp3 files that were legal.

Google sucks, they screw up a lot of what they touch, and they censor, yes they do.

But they have improved a lot lately. They are becoming more and more reliable, and their results are notably better. If they keep going, they will be great alternatives to Google, specially at the side of Tor and the like, where Google might prevent the anonymous user from searching.

If you want to have a search that is distributed yet affordable, and easy, the first step is to seed files full of reliable servers and IPs, even through Tor and Freenet, for websites with decent content.

In this way, all one has to do is searching for something like “torrent list”, “sites list”, and of course make sure to download only those from trusted, verified seeders, just like in Thepiratebay.

Was looking for a torrent of a particular tv show,
Google gave me nothing.
Bing a few results.
DuckDuckGo the best.
No more to say.

@Karan Shah, lol that’s what you think. You are lucky they aren’t going after Indians. They can easily coordinate with your country’s law enforcement to haul your ass if they wanted as USA has good relations with India. Your foreign minister would serve your ass on a platter to them and not bat an eyelid. There are probably no big fish to catch in India, so they don’t care at the moment.

Thanks finally good to see another alternative that works. I freaking schmoogle and bing and they’re retarded crap for the last 10+ years. Screwing search features by taking them out, censorship, shitty android and windows smartphones. Jeeze it never ends
