Search results are as neutral as we can make them. I’d like to point anyone curious about this to some of our previous replies on the subject:
Brave doesn’t censor, and Brave doesn’t inject bias into Search results. We go far beyond paying lip-service to this commitment too; we’re developing Goggles to prevent this issue.
This thread was brought to my attention, and I think it’s worth answering. My name is Josep M. Pujol, I’m responsible for Brave Search. Prior to joining Brave, I spent 6 years building the eventual foundation of Brave Search at Cliqz.
Brave Search does not censor. The fact that some expected results aren’t returned is not the result of censorship; it’s the result of search-engine-development being hard, and forever a work in progress.
There is some confusion between censorship and bias. Brave …
We do not do that.
Our search results are not biased either way. Certain queries may appear to be more “left-leaning” or “right-leaning” based on a variety of factors such as result popularity, recency and other factors.
Additionally, if you’re looking to block anything “left-leaning” in any way, as @Saoiray suggested, I would use Goggles. It does literally exactly what you’re asking us to do for you. Its the whole reason the feature exists. You can learn how to use Goggles here:
If you would like to insert your own bias (leaning left, right-leaning or any other direction) such that you don’t see anything related to one side or another, you’re welcome to do so by making use of Goggles as @chriscat stated above:https://support.brave.com/hc/en-us/articles/6959189556237-How-do-I-use-Goggles-
Note that the very first paragraph of the above article answers/debunks the claim that we alter these search results in any way:
Goggles for Brave Search is a new, innovative way for users to choose their own ranking algorithm for search queries. By default, Brave Search does not have any hidden algorithms that alter search results to favor any specific domains, political leanings, or any other factors. Goggles puts users in control of how their queries are ranked or filtered when searching.
