Yes, the title is right. I created my very own search engine which is open source and controlled by me. You can (probably) even use it for yourself by going to notgoogle.win! I will guide you through the steps so that you can make your own. Why do this? Many search engines (pretty much all of them) collect your data to serve ads based on your searches. Even DuckDuckGo, the “privacy first” search engine has exclusive deals with Microsoft.
