- Rated 1 out of 5by Publius Maximus, 2 years agoSeveral years ago I endorsed StartPage, but I dropped my endorsement when System 1 (an ad tech company) acquired both StartPage and the WaterFox browser. Beware. There is no telling what they may do with your data.

- Rated 1 out of 5by SuperFly, 2 years agoBecome a Captcha-Pro with Startpage. Simply fill in a timed, multiple choice categorical questionnaire web-page detailing your specific VPN, ad-blocker or content blocker, device-identity changer, whether connected to TOR and other useful IDENTITY and TRACKING details - then its Captcha time. Time run out before you could finish the form and captcha? SURPRISE! Every time you use Startpage you fill out the questionable form and solve at least 1 captcha.

posted 2 years agoUnfortunately, Startpage is subjected to automated abuse and scraping on a daily basis, which can be very costly financially and in terms of system performance; a lot of that traffic originates on VPNs and TOR. Accordingly, we have strong anti-abuse measures in place, which we continually work hard to improve. In some instances, normal users will set off one of our rules and be asked to verify they are not a bot.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 15142503, 2 years agoYo tenía la extensión en español, pero de repente esta desapareció de mi navegador y al reinstalar la extensión solo me pone la versión en inglés, quiero de vuelta el startpage en español.
Developer response
posted 2 years agoNosotros solo proporcionamos Startpage Privacy Protection en Ingles y Alemán. Puede ser que hay otro problema con tu configuración o que instalo otra extensión. Por favor contacts nuestro equipo de apoyo a support@startpage.com y te podemos ayudar con las configuraciones para que tengas acceso a Startpage en Español. - Rated 5 out of 5by Manaplayer, 2 years agoI use it everywhere as default search engine - Super thing!
But one thing about the addon: On the site of Startpage you can configure your custom style of the page. Because i'm not using cookies, i need to start on the custom url. This addon don't have a option to change it?Developer response
posted 2 years agoThanks for choosing Startpage! Combining the Settings URL with the add-on sounds like a cool new feature idea. We’ll share with our Product team.
Thanks for caring about privacy! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17441005, 2 years ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Damien Alleyne, 3 years agoIt works great. However, it is missing a very important feature: search suggestions. The add-on hasn't been updated in 2 years, so it seems we'll never get this feature. One will have to create this feature on the Mycroft Project.
Developer response
posted 2 years agoThanks for choosing Startpage! Search suggestions are available as part of our our other extension:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/startpage-privacy-protection/.
We might consider adding support for suggestions here, too, but our team is currently focused on major upgrades to our search experience. Thanks for the suggestion and for carving about privacy!
