Somehow related, I have also questions as an European (Belgian) who then observe what is happening right now in the USA with curiosity (and fear to be honest). Please don’t take any offense in this question, the purpose is, for me, to understand, not criticize Americans at all. I work with plenty of them who don’t look stupid at all (but I’ll never dare to speak politics with colleagues, a bit of a “touchy” topic with people you don’t know well).

In my country, we have got a new government almost at the same time Trump was inaugurated. They plan to do some changes to the way some aspects of our society is, changes that are a bit difficult for some categories of the population but really nothing like in the USA. Anyway, since January, there have been strikes, protests, people going in the streets,…

Why are we not seeing such things in the USA? I would have thought that there will be millions of people in the streets protesting against the F-gesture done to democracy, LGBT rights, women rights, nonsense with economy (tarriff, that at the end the “middle class workers” will have to pay) and foreign politics but, as far as we are aware here in Europe, I seen no such protests. The only action I seen is some boycott of Tesla.

• Is it a cultural difference with Europe (and other parts of the world) to not go in the streets?
• Are those occurring but the medias do not inform us on it?
• Are people scared to protest?
• Or, people just don’t care or are even, in majority, happy with what happens now?

This is fair, as long as you still allow to add own search engine it’s good enough (I re-added qwant but I’m testing out alternatives a bit (searxng (public instance first), startpage and re-give a go to ddg to see if it improved a bit for local results)

I wanna try Searx too, I’ll document myself a bit more about it.

This is how I interpreted the policy too but wanted to be sure about it. It’s so easy to get lost in juridic language.
