If you can use Google through SearX, isn't Startpage redundant? IIRC they don't ever claim to do anything but proxy Google results.

After they were purchased by an advertising company? Yes.

Yes, except in the case where Google is rate limited. There is/was a Searx instance that regularly got blocked by Google, I do not remember which one though.
