- Rated 1 out of 5by aths, 5 years agoIt seriously shows ads first in the search results. I always need to scroll past the ads to reach the actual results. It refuses to show the search results & gets broken, when ads-block or similar extensions like no-script are in action. Quite unexpected behavior considering the name "private search engine".

posted 4 years agoThanks for trying Startpage. Ads are how we are able to provide a free private service. It might interest you to know that the team has been hard at work overhauling and improving the search experience. Among those improvements launching this month will be a reduced-ad experience on mobile.
From time to time, we do test the performance of our search results with extensions like the ones you mention and we haven’t found any major issues. In responding to your comment, we tested with several, including NoScript, and were able to pull up results just fine. With NoScript, the menus above the results disappeared, but that is to be expected unless you add us as a trusted domain. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us at support@startpage.com.
Thanks for caring about privacy! - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13496425, 5 years ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by Dark Thoughts, 6 years agoHaving to solve a freaking captcha for every damn search, because I am using a VPN and / or private mode, is absolutely not reasonable.

- Rated 1 out of 5by MYOB, 6 years agoWARNING...SUSPECT SCaMMER/SPAMMER ADD ON....Works maybe one is a dozen times otherwise a stupid message appears asking how you are 'working'....personally think it is either a spamming system or a scamming system and have now blocked it from our devices. Also have doubts about authenticity of claims that user data is secure.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14133370, 6 years agoUsed it happily for some years. But since a few days the add-on doesnt return any result for any query. Disappointing. Will check back over a year or so.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Flume, 6 years agoStarts to block questions from TOR or open proxies, just like google. No longer useable for me and i no longer trust them. Now owned by a advertisment agency.
- Rated 1 out of 5by DailySurfer, 6 years agoWARNING! An advertising company called System1 has now huge impact on data collection of each user using Startpage because System1 has become majority shareholder. Do not use this search machine anymore!

Good alternatives are still DuckDuckgo (is subject to US-law) or with regards to European data protection regulations, the French search machine Qwant. - Rated 1 out of 5by fromCharCode, 6 years agoStartpage cannot be considered protecting your data anymore, since they are sold to system1 - a company earning money with personalized advertisement.
DO NOT USE THIS SEARCHENGINE! - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13869129, 6 years agoHabe startpage lange benutzt. Leider wurde es verkauft an ein Datensammelunternehmen! Sehr traurig. Wollen die ehemaligen Betreiber, die uns mit Datenschutz angeworben haben, mit dem Geld für den Verkauf jetzt glücklich werden oder wollen sie nur nach Kohle stinken???

- Rated 1 out of 5by Indogermane, 7 years agoStartPage wirbt für Datenschutz, wurde aber von einer Werbefirma (System1) aufgekauft. Ich rate von der Benutzung ab.
