What is Whoogle

Whoogle is a way to search Google without the tracking and other evil shit that Google does to you. It is like duckduckgo except it only searches Google and does so without any invasive data collection and targeting of consumers without their permission. It does not send data about the device or user doing the search. It does not aid another search engine. Microsoft does not get the search data to use in their engine, which is what duckduckgo does..reports your search and metadata to Microsoft.

The interface is fast to load and the searches are prompt. There’s a certain amount of configuration that can be done. It can be run from within a Proxmox container.

I examined both Google search results and whoogle. They are nearly identicle. What’s missing is the tools option where you can specify date ranges. Also the related searches is an expandible box iinstead of just showing it and it does not have page numbers for other pages of the search. Instead it had a next page and previous page.

It works fine in fennec android browser. You can set it as a search engine. In Firefox on the desktop you can set it as as search engine with an extension but you can’t set the search parameters in order to search from the address bar.
