What would be a more privacy respecting service instead of Amazon? in c/privacy@lemmy.ml
[–] perishthethought@lemm.ee 51 points 2 days ago (6 children)

I think my approach is fairly common:

  • Do research on Amazon, find products, companies I want
  • Leave Amazon, go directly to the company and buy it from them directly.

For example, last week I looked for a kit to grow micro-greens at home. Found one I liked, left the evil awful, bought it from the maker on their own web site. Repeat as often as you need.

It doesn't seem likely but stranger things have happened. Crossing my fingers.

William Gibson's writing after the Sprawl trilogy always seemed very likely to happen. I mean, squatters living on the Bay Bridge in NorCal after it gets damaged in an earthquake, for instance. Not the really out there stuff.

Today, I’m excited to introduce Waterfox Private Search, now available in open beta. This represents an important step in our journey toward creating a more independent and privacy-respecting browsing experience.

Waterfox Private Search is a meta-search engine that I’ve developed with a clear goal: to eventually serve as the default search option for Waterfox, reducing our dependency on Microsoft and other intermediaries who typically serve as gatekeepers between you and your search results.

ETA: The search link:
