Pernille Tranberg ✔️Sad story about #qwant a French search engine, in deep troubles and its co-founder having left in order to start #Altrnativ which helps companies investigate critics, rivals and employees of some of the biggest brands in France, especially on social media. From #privacy to #snooping https://www.politico.eu/article/frances-mr-privacy-turns-cybersnooper/
Thomas Ekman Jorgensen@pernillet - #Qwant is not becoming part of a 'cybersnooping' endeavour because a co-founder is doing something different now; this is a bit of an implicit stretch in the story. I am going to continue using it, because it is better than Google: I find what I look for without self-preferencing and with better privacy.
Fari@thomasjorgensen @pernillet I completely agree, plus, he's been gone for 2 years now. But, I still think Qwant should focus on improving the search engine rather than integrating features such as Qwant Maps.
