In a move aimed at enhancing user privacy, Firefox has joined forces with Qwant, a French search engine renowned for its commitment to user data protection. The collaboration was unveiled as Firefox seeks to provide its users with more privacy-focused alternatives in the realm of online search.
Qwant stands out among search engines for its refusal to employ cookies for user tracking or personalized advertising. Instead, it prides itself on its proprietary web indexing technology, which ensures that users can browse without leaving behind a trail of data.
Privacy-conscious users will appreciate Qwant’s approach, as it not only refrains from tracking but also blocks advertising, prioritizing user privacy above all else. The partnership between Firefox and Qwant underscores their shared dedication to offering unbiased and comprehensive search results without compromising user privacy.
Through this collaboration, Firefox users gain access to Qwant directly from their browser, alongside other search engine options. Whether users prioritize privacy or simply prefer a different search experience, the Firefox-Qwant partnership aims to empower users with greater control over their online interactions.
