Danke an die Mitarbeiter der App/ Suchmaschine! Ehrenwert und Vorbildlich solch Arbeit, leider versteht die Mehrheit nicht, wie wichtig sowas ist, eine Suchmaschine zu nutzen, die nicht komplett Manipuliert Arbeitet aus Werbeinteresse heraus. THX!!! PS: Mein Freundeskreis erfreut sich mittlerweile auch darüber, durch meine Mundpropaganda - natürlich Ehrenamtlich :))))

Eine erstklassige Alternative zu Google. Mittlerweile hat es sich ja herumgesprochen, dass man bei Google manipuliert wird, indem bestimmte Suchergebnisse herausgefiltert werden, die nicht ins woke Bild der selbsternannten linken Weltverbesserer passen. Swisscows bleibt neutral und liefert somit auch Suchergebnisse, die man bei Google gar nicht oder nur ganz weit hinten finden würde. Außerdem findet kein Tracking statt, so dass man als User anonym suchen kann. Insgesamt eine sehr familienfreundliche Suchmaschine, da gewaltverherrlichende und pornografische Seiten ausgeblendet werden. Das mag einige User vielleicht stören, aber wer unbedingt nach Pornos suchen will, kann ja zu einer anderen Suchmaschine greifen. Oder wie das Sprichwort sagt: Ein Schwein findet immer den Weg zum Dreck. Sehr zu empfehlen ist auch die sichere WhatsApp-Alternative "TeleGuard", die auf der Swisscows.com Startseite verlinkt ist.
