DuckDuckGo has been caught tracking and reporting data to Microsoft with their hidden teaching agreement as well as censoring websites by removing them from their search engine.

I use a few different ones depending on what I'm looking up.

For search engines, searx.be is a good one using the Brave web browser, which also has a nice search engine. I wish I had a link to a chart that listed privacy based info on different Web Browsers, but I don't have it at hand atm.
