Works alright but does share info with microsoft and uses bing indexing, sharing ur info for targeted advertising. Also blocks you from searching if you use a VPN and intermittently also ad blockers. Basically the same under the radar security hole as duck duck go, so not really privacy focused so much a they claim.

Inconditionnel utilisateur de Qwant depuis sa création. Nous avons enfin un logiciel français, simple, clair, fiable, efficace. PS. Mon seul problème est qu'il se fait souvent remplacer "malicieusement" par Bing ou Google (que je déteste). Que puis-je pour y remédier ?
