Google is not the only oasis in the desert
I know it looks that way, but it is not. At a time when the multinational is threatening to shut down its site in Australia, it is worth remembering that there are good alternatives to the search engine. And they are better than you think.
Imagine your life without Google searches. Sounds like a nightmare, right? Now think again. It is by far the best search engine on the whole internet, but also the one that collects the most data about you. It is not just what you search for. It is the time, the context, the why, the links you click on.
There is no doubt that the multinational has a better product than its competitors. So, if you see no problem in handing over your information in exchange for faster and more accurate searches, Google is undoubtedly the best option.
