You can use these instead of Google:

  1. SearXNG
  2. MetaGer
  3. Brave
  4. Mojeek
  5. PriEco
  6. SwissCows
  7. Yandex {It's really good for Torrenting}
  8. LibreX & LibreY {Gives you google search results in a privacy-respecting way Without JavaScript}

You can also use Startpage, which copies google's results.

Yacy Run your own alternative. With the possibility p2p that others find your crawled pages the other way around. Screwed in p2p that you only get results from others but don't share any yourself. Complete island mode - no p2p takes place and can also be operated offline locally. You control the crawler, the results well just anything.
