We don't want your personal data. Period.
So... do you know how Startpage protects your privacy?

We're thrilled to have received the rating "excellent" in this latest @PCMag review. Check it out via the link below!
"StartMail's user interface is slick, modern, and responsive; and it works on any platform. Its combination of email encryption and email aliases lets you communicate securely with trusted correspondents and interact with untrusted sources without giving away your true email address."
Dear Big Tech,
Privacy is a human right. Why is this so difficult for you to understand?

Very cool! #Startpage's browser addon called #Privacy Protection now allows you to temporarily blur the current tab by pressing the ESC key 3 times. Press it a 4th time to switch to a blank @StartpageSearch.

📢 Check it out folks! The Startpage Privacy Protection extension has a new feature!
Escape Route allows you to quickly hide your search and browsing activity from anyone that may come up behind you. No more unwanted 👀 on your screen!
Big news! The EU passed the Digital Services Act and the Digital Markets Act.
"The DSA is focused on boosting the efficacy and transparency of online content moderation, while the DMA centers on combatting anti-competitive company practices."

We find that using TorBrowser and #I2P are important first steps.
Purging #Cloudflare and all website that use Cloudflare including #banks, is is another important step. In #TorBrowser hit Ctrl+Shift+E to bring up the Network Tab, by looking at the domains the websites use you'll quickly see which are Cloudflare by the "cf-ray" in the HTTP response. The Block Cloudflare MITM Attack (BCMA) plugin can help.
The #UBlockOrigin addon is used by #TailsOS in TorBrowser, so use it.

@StartpageSearch
Privacy should be a protected human right everywhere.
Consent without a realistic and informed option to refuse isn’t consent.

@StartpageSearch It depends what you mean by "non-tech," but I have an RFID protector in my wallet so people can't scan my credit cards!
