Ah, so Duckduckgo leadership is still the only one in thr clear?
Yeah, I definitely haven't seen as much sketchy stuff about their leadership, that's for sure. It's really hard to find a trustworthy group doing this kind of thing, partially because of the sheer amount of money needed to get such a thing off the ground to begin with... which usually ends up meaning VC money, which ends up meaning shady decisions to be able to pay it back.
Well, appreciate the headsup. The battle is always staying informed.
While at it, any recommended alternatives to ProtonMail?
Tutanota is a common recommended alternative, (which is now just called "Tuta").
Tutanota, as specified in my initial reply
I have had reasonable experiences with startpage as a search engine.
Find a searx / searxng instance or run one yourself! Depending on corporate software will continue to be a cat and mouse game.
