Google is a popular Internet media corporation mainly known for its search engine and for its advertising business.

Alternatives[edit]

  • YaCy Free, distributed search engine.
  • Scroogle .org - Privacy-enhanced interface to Google and Yahoo search, not using cookies (or other data mining), access log deleted after one week and Firefox engine available. The interface works fast, but it lacks a few functions such as the picture-search part of Google, the Google cache, and other goodies. However it doesn't store a permanent cookie on your computer nor does it show anything useful (e.g. search details) in HTTP referer logs. A project by Google-Watch.
  • cuil .com - Alternative search engine made by a former Google employee listing even more pages than Google does.

Other potential competitors, mainly commercial[edit]
