AFP: Seek and ye shall find. A number of new
Internet search engines created by Christian, Jewish or Muslim entities
aim to filter out queries from Web users in a way that is more relevant
to those users and keeps them from temptation, alcohol and pornography.
"We think that the other search engines are way too ‘main street’
oriented. We wanted to provide a solution to explore the Web in a safe
environment, where you won’t bump into explicit content or immoral
websites, like pornography,” said Reza Sardeha, the Amsterdam-based
founder of the Muslim-oriented search engine I’mHalal.
If one types the world alcohol into imhalal.com,
the search engine produces results that explain the Muslim viewpoint on
drinking. Type in "pornography,” and the search engine produces
nothing. |
