        It uses a whole bunch of potential sources. It is not a front-end for Bing like, say, DuckDuckGo.

          If that’s the case, why not use searx? I could only see myself using a paid search engine if

          1. It demonstrably returned results relevant to my search more accurately than their competitors

          2. It was well documented that they respected my privacy and how

          3. It showed me no advertisements

          4. It doesn’t utilize SEO marketing tactics to adjust its search results

          5. It supported !bangs for very fast searching of specific websites and/or other search engines
