Whether you are a network engineer Googling a potential product who is weary of vendor follow-up emails or a journalist searching for background information on a topic that might flag you for some kind of government watch list (e.g., my search for the Syrian Electronic Army’s Twitter feed), many of us have wished that search was a little more private. In response, a number of so-called private search engines have arisen, claiming to prevent the sort of information-gathering associated with Google, Bing, or Yahoo searches. They include Gibiru, DuckDuckGo, Qrobe.it, StartPage, Gigablast, and Zeekly.
