(Submitter’s Note: The 20 photos were CSAM)
I am not trying to be unkind, and I have nothing personal against StartPage, but why should I promote a search engine that filters out my articles? I even went into “Settings” in StartPage, to choose “Don't filter results,” just in case it was being censored by the family filter, but it didn't make any difference.
You have a choice as my web visitors, but I wanted you to know that you may be missing out on important information by using StartPage. Honestly, I have no problem with Google when I think about it, because you have nothing to fear if you're not going places you shouldn't go on the internet, and downloading inappropriate content (ask Morton Berger who got 200 years in prison in Arizona, without hope of parole, for merely downloading 20 photos. Whoa! That is gross injustice!). I don't like anybody looking over my shoulder, but if Google finds me interesting enough to monitor, knock yourself out. I'm worried about God not Google!
I tell people that when you use the internet, look at it as a one way mirror, where you're on one side and ten-thousand people are watching you on the other side (BECAUSE THEY ARE... cops, government, CIA, NSA, hackers, companies, banks, God... you name it). There's no such thing as privacy on the internet.
