New description:
The default startpage search from within torbrowser uses the 'family
friendly' filters for text, image, and video content. I suggest modifying
the default startpage search settings to remove all filtering and provide
the raw results.
The startpage preferences page lets you remove the filtering. Their
suggested URL for searches without these settings is
[https://startpage.com/do/mypage.pl?prfh=sslEEE1N1Nfont_sizeEEEmediumN1Nrecent_results_filterEEE1N1Nlanguage_uiEEEenglishN1Ndisable_open_in_new_windowEEE1N1Ndisable_family_filterEEE1N1Nnum_of_resultsEEE10N1NlanguageEEEenglishN1Ndisable_video_family_filterEEE1N1N
Unfiltered Startpage URL]
I ran into this filtering when searching for some data about sex workers
and labor trafficking in the USA. The resulting text and image results
were neutered due to the topic.
