It is a search engine, but to understand how different this search engine is, we are going to shed a light on one of the most famous search engines "Google": it controls 77% of all searches, influencing trillions of dollars in spending, shaping perceptions and effectively acting as the primary gatekeeper to the Internet. It monitors all your searches to use it while flooding you with ad campaigns. And this company has no concept of privacy, as they have explicitly stated it in their agreement: " When you upload, submit, store, send or receive content to or through our Services, you give Google **(and those we work with)** "_meaning CIA and NASA among others_" a worldwide license to use, host, store, reproduce, modify, create derivative works, communicate, publish, publicly perform, publicly display and distribute such content...This license continues even if you stop using our Services ...
