Top 7 Alternative Solutions That Will Lead Patriots to Victory in the Information War
You’ve got a project to do. More information is needed. You eagerly make your way to the usual spot on the corner of the couch or plop down in your comfy computer chair. Fingers fire away at lightning speed as you call up a Search Engine (SE) and type meticulously thought-out keywords. Your eyes take in the first few results, quickly discarding them. You pick up the pace now, examining description summaries, making associations, confirming patterns, seeking… seeking… you reach the bottom of the page, rinse, repeat – nothing! After going back and clicking on a few, just in case, you jettison the 2nd page, “refine” your carefully crafted set of key words and begin anew. Rage boils under the surface as you realize all manner of search modifications have led you no closer to the content you’re seeking. For those who have experienced similar issues (those who haven’t will!) Canusapatriots has done some digging and you're gonna like what we found.
Many of the most popular “brand name” SE’s are more interested in collecting mounds of your personal info and creating a self-servingly crafted set of results than providing accurate search returns. When combined with Alphabet and Google’s software and hardware, they are compiling a truly alarming amount of information about every aspect of your life.

Switching to PSE’s Helps…a Little
Privacy Search Engines are great because many don’t collect or store private information, such as the topics you’re looking at, and your IP address. Not storing your info means that at least you won’t fall victim to fairly regular corporate hacking, breaches, or worse. While Start Page has a deal with Google, they claim not to let Google access your info. The reported benefit to you is that you have access to Google’s massive system of indexing and data sources. But, more info is definitely not always better. Google’s algorithms tend to “refine” the results, often burying the content you want to see in favour of what they’d prefer you to see. See how that works?
The limits of Search Engines Explained
- Why do my results appear almost the same, even when I switch Search Engines? Simply put, mainly because many share common sources. Search Engines use other Search Engines to increase the amount of info they can offer. There are tens of thousands of Search Engines, and the list is growing.
- A perfect example is Wikipedia, an innocuous enough sounding name for an online encyclopedic resource. Wikipedia, sadly, shows up 1st in the returned results on most of the top Search Engines. Since people are programmed to identify top results as reputable, Wikipedia gains an edge in swaying public opinion when clicks to their site lead searchers astray from other results that are often more relevant. To deal with this trick consider ignoring it and categorizing it as just another advertisement.
Now for the great news!
Conservatives and Patriots are increasingly finding superior methods to get the information they want, without spending hours rifling through search returns that often contain anti-conservative links and articles about your subject, rather than the facts, themselves. Here are the Top 7 :
1. Conservative Search Engines – before we move away from SE’s consider these: Conservapedia.com and http://www.4conservative.com/
2. Bookmarks – Click on that star at the top of your page when on a website and never have to search for it again. Make new folders and organize to your heart’s content.
3. Shortcuts – Same as above, only links appear on your screen. Drag the bookmark anywhere you want onto your home screen. Put folders inside of other folders, rename and access info exactly the way YOU want to!
4. Direct Browser Search – you can simply type in what you think is the name directly into your Web Browser, as opposed to searching through a search engine. Most of them will auto-correct and help you find the specific name of what you’re looking for.
5. Deep Web – Even the biggest SE’s like Google and Yahoo have just a fraction of the total info on the web. Yippy.com is an example of a Deep Web SE you can use. DDG also has some Dark Web content.
6. TOR – Getting its acronym from its full name, The Onion Router, this is a privacy-based browser originally developed by the US Navy. It is said to be an R&D tool for new secure software. Use with caution.
7. Conservative Aggregating Sites – Saving the best for last, this is by far the fastest growing method of finding the latest breaking stories and interesting events for the Patriot community. Never have to search for news again through a biased Search Engine! This type of website is just a well-organized collection of the best choices from around the net. A personal favourite is http://thelibertymill.com/

That and Google has apparently decided to redact history so that Abe Lincoln was not a Republican:
What's next?
What's next is we stop using Google as a verb...for people to stop referencing them in any content, and stop registering with them so they can index all of our info and benefit from it. We need Steemit's video fully accessible on streaming devices and smart TV's. Currently we allow Alphabet to funnel us into their info streams. We are their resource, but we have the power to circumvent much of their control. The list I provided allows for that. Much of it can be done IMMEDIATELY, while some things (such as Youtube's video monopoly on devices) will take time.
I do like the voice command thingie on my phone but otherwise I really have never been a google user. Steemit might need to make its own search engine
That's an excellent idea. Thanks for taking the time to comment.

I totally agree with you. I try not to use g00gle - at first it was too invasive, but I realize that the giant search engine is controlling what we understand. For what reason though? If it is to make our world a One World government, that begs the question why would they want to? We'd still need leaders. Ugh.
I've been using safesearch.norton just to away from g00gle.
It's all about control. Just look at Google's latest move. Read https://steemit.com/informationwar/@canusapatriots/google-comes-to-the-aid-of-msm-pals-by-launching-bulletin-news-gathering-app
They are involved in almost every facet of our lives. When you begin to see how they are now doing predictive analytics with the See Aye Eh, to track all of our internet activity, and are involved in Smart Home Tech, it paints a very accurate picture.
To summarize, they are in our homes, in our cars, in every device we use...they use "free" apps with multi-page user agreements they know nobody reads to gain rights we would never give anyone if we consciously read all of it. And they're embedded in the gov't - maybe the other way around.
The good news is it is never too later to fight this control. Information is power.
I'm beginning to understand the See Aye Eh. There are 'sync' requests everywhere, which I try not to.

This is awesome. I tried the 4conservative search but it was extremely limited and dated.
I’ve found Yippy to be pretty solid if I need something. I’ll keep trying others. : ).
