Whoogle Search VS Removaly

I deployed whoogle search at home. For laptops it is rather easy to define it as the default search for alfred and the respective browser, but for iOS devices I have not found a way (except some rather clunky and intrusive extensions) to change the default search engine beyond what Apple tells you. Is there a way to to this via pfSense or pihole? So whenever someone searches in the address bar in safari on iOS... Source: 12 months ago

I host an instance of Whoogle Search that I use and never looked back. It's like someone brought Google back to the golden age. No (direct) tracking, no ads, complete control over the results. Source: 12 months ago

Use a site like Removaly. They scan every day to ensure instances of personal information stay off, even if and when they do come back. No other service scans daily (most are monthly or quarterly). Source: over 1 year ago

Once your address is out there it's pretty difficult to get it down. That said, you can use a service like Removaly (the one I created with a fellow redditor) to make sure people search sites aren't posting your address for anyone to easily find from a simple Google search. Source: over 1 year ago

I founded Removaly with a fellow redditor and would be happy to give you a discount & help in any other way I can 👍. Source: over 1 year ago

You're better off going with a comparatively priced service that is actually US-based and doesn't cater to data brokers by playing both sides of the field. I co-own one such service, Removaly. Happy to answer any questions you may have about data removal in general. Source: over 1 year ago

The sites that sell it all offer an opt out process though. There are services like Removaly (that I created) that will find / remove your information from these sites. Source: over 1 year ago
