There are so many GNU fans here... Why hasn't anyone created or successfully created (meaning widely used) an open source search engine if everyone is so pissed at Google and the other engine makers for violating privacy?
There're also things like the Open Directory [dmoz.org] and the software listed here [searchtools.com]. However, I imagine it is hard to really break into the search engine game without lots of money!
If all the world's economists were laid end to end, we wouldn't reach a
conclusion.
