Good luck with that, IIRC Cuba has nukes.

EDIT: They don't.

There's DRM on medical equipment, for starters.

Keep in mind by controlled I mean that America can with the stroke of a pen revoke our access to health care systems. I don't know the specifics of a healthcare system's infrastructure provide many examples.

I doubt Keir is the type to push back on anything really.

Where are we on Search Engines? (lemmy.ca)
 

So I've tried out a few search engines but no matter where I look I can't find a great answer.

  • Qwant was decent for a bit but as I eventually found out they don't use their own index.
  • SearXNG, same as above.
  • Mojeek was one of the first I went with but I often can't find what I'm looking for when using it.
  • Wikipedia gives me YaCy, Exalead, Opensearch, Gigablast, and Elasticsearch but either I can't find the URL's for them or they require I install something on my computer.

What did you all end up picking? And does it even matter if the back-end is American owned, do American companies make money from that (or does that give them inordinate control)?
