I tried looking for 'jewish crimes' and got only pro-israel results. Fuck that.

One quick search proved it's useless.

The article did NOT specify if it's an open source Search Engine.

I would dig deep to verify if it is open source before I would use it.

My first question: how do they make money?

Also, this is interesting from their site:

Be Luminous

The expression "Be Luminous" is at the core of our name: Luxxle is derived from the Latin phrase "Fiat Lux" which means “Let there be Light". “Lux” means “Light”, which also represents the concepts of information and knowledge.

The etymology of Lucifer is "light bearer":

Old English Lucifer "Satan," also "morning star, Venus in the morning sky before sunrise," also an epithet or name of Diana, from Latin Lucifer "morning star," noun use of adjective, literally "light-bringing," from lux (genitive lucis) "light" (from PIE root leuk- "light, brightness") + ferre "to carry, bear," from PIE root bher- (1) "to carry," also "to bear children." Venus in the evening sky was Hesperus.

Belief that it was the proper name of Satan began with its use in Bible to translate Greek Phosphoros, which translates Hebrew Helel ben Shahar in Isaiah xiv.12 — "How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning!" [KJV] Because of the mention of a fall from Heaven, the verse was interpreted spiritually by Christians as a reference to Satan, even though it is literally a reference to the King of Babylon (see Isaiah xiv.4). Sometimes rendered daystar in later translations.
