Unique Features and Our Reviews
Search Engines have evolved. They are no more a directory of links. With the rapid evolution the issues of privacy protection has emerged. It becomes little scary at times to know that search engines even record all of your search history as well other personal preferences which you might not like to share with anyone.
Yauba, a new search engine that helps you search web anonymously helps protect privacy and thus ensure you a secure web surfing. Their search engine aggregates results from different web platforms including the likes of social networks as well other popular search engines.
You can opt in to visit any website (shown in the results) anonymously. This kind of initiative is still in experimentation stage and we will have to see its evolution as the popularity grows.
