Thanks bitpop I have been aware of duckduckgo for sometime due to isohunt but was wondering on the mechanism they use and if cryptography based search engines could be created to apply to data.
http://isohunt.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=838077

Personally I was thinking more along the lines of cryptoparty on a larger scale instead using the blockchain as a web crawler and anonymizing the data through the blockchain as coded inputs that people could use to access web sites.

Namecoin is capable of being a decentralized domain system the application to search engines seems like a plausible extension of the software of course I am not sure if that is possible which is why I requested input

The applicability of such an idea is what I am curious about

What is it?
"A CryptoParty educates people in the domain of cryptography. It's usually about the basics: how to send encrypted email, how to protect your hardware and how to use free and open source software,"

CryptoParties started in August 2012 by an Australian woman (who goes by the pseudonym Asher Wolf) after a conversation on Twitter about The Australian Parliament's new cybercrime bill that allowed law enforcement to ask Internet Service Providers to monitor and store data.
Attending a CryptoParty is a good way to learn how to overcome government snooping legally.

“Citizens should use encryption to safeguard their private communications against both corporations and the government. Encryption is one of the best ways to react to CMS along with increased civic vigilance and democratic questioning of our government and parliamentarians,” says Pranesh Prakash, policy director, CIS, and one of the frontrunners in the fight to formulate a policy to safeguard privacy in India.

was registered then...

not a lot you can do at the moment.. (future namecoin updates will include sendmessage)

you could make a name your self called d/wtbjustcoin with your contact details (BM address?).. and transfer the name to them.. hopefully they notice it

just an idea

You cannot believe what anyway of these companies say because the law actually requires them to lie and deny their involvement. And that is just how they like it ... if the law requires them to lie, spy and steal they are not liable.

It is the same vein of the propaganda campaign directives whereby Pentagon, DOJ etc are required to actively produce misinformation. When the law requires lying their is no room left for justice or truth, in public discourse or courts of law. I'm always surprised how naive people seem to be when confronting how far this has already gone, as many of these directives were released into the public when they were enacted over the last decade (if you can believe them that is of course). There is no turning back from an out of control, above the law State like this now ... that ship sailed a long time ago.

Not sure if this was mentioned in the thread

I was wondering if namecoin could be used or implemented as a search engine using cryptography to protect privacy

Came out of this idea and a comment I read so was thinking hmm maybe it can be done would like some comments on the plausibility of it.

WHERE IS SMART PEOPLE IN USA! PLEASE TRY CREATE A NEW SEARCH ENGINE TO FIGHT GOOGLE DOMINATION!

There is this block explorer ... not sure if abe http://explorer.dot-bit.org/

does somebody know a namecoin block explorer based on abe??

posted this in another thread.. but good to post here i think

Good that works now. You are making very much for the Namecoin community.

My proxy server didn't work last days (the plugin uses it).
Maybe due to too much requests. If it doesn't work anymore again, pm me.

this.

however, there are some good news. namecoin.com has released the source code on their firefox extension, and the add-on is working again!

Sadly, the chrome app remains garbage for the time being.

... and ...  did you have a point?

namecoin can be used as a key-value system to do things like this: namecoin-files (i dont link it on purpose so ppl have to search for it as it bloats the blockchain alot...)
