Privacy Redirect: Reduce Filter Bubbles & Tech Monopolies

An open-source browser extension that redirects Google search traffic through privacy-focused search engines, aiming to minimize filter bubbles and tech monopolies.

What is Privacy Redirect?

Privacy Redirect is an open-source web browser extension available for Firefox, Chrome, and Chromium-based browsers. It automatically redirects searches made on Google Search to privacy-focused search engines like DuckDuckGo, Startpage, or Searx.

The goal of Privacy Redirect is to reduce the filter bubbles and tech monopolies created by Google's personalized search results and data collection policies. It allows users to access alternative search engines that do not track searches or build user profiles.

By installing the extension, users can continue using Google Search while their queries are actually powered by more privacy-oriented search engines in the background. No manually changing default search engines required.

Privacy Redirect is customizable, allowing users to choose their preferred private search engine destination. It also provides options for managing exceptions to enable Google search when needed. As an open-source tool, the code is transparent and community-driven.
