2022/06/17	Page	Added "no-referrer" meta to nojs for modern browsers.
2021/04/08	Script	Script is working again.
2020/12/15	Script	HTTP request modified to comply with default filtron rules. Instance stats cleared. My apologies to all admins whose servers were excluded.
2020/04/18	Page	Added instance uptime/downtime scores.
2020/03/22	Page	Added a manual non-Javascript version. Queries sent as POST and may leak HTTP referrer. Dice not included.
2020/02/24	Serverlist	Server list source changed to searx.space from Searx Wiki.

2019/07/17	Serverlist	Added servers "running in exclusive private walled-gardens" (Cloudflare) to exclusions.

2018/06/05	Serverlist	Instances with analytics excluded.
2018/01/16	Script	Basic detection (unicode ranges) of Japanese and Russian characters to set search language.

Server List

Updated every six hours from instance.json at searx.space and tested with curl & grep to determine if the instance returns valid results (e.g. q=rosebud, expect: "Citizen Kane").

instance.json filters

network_type: normal
http status_code: 200
html grade: V or C (no custom JS/external files)
tls: Does not contain "CloudFlare"
network: Does not contain "googleusercontent"
timing search success_percentage: 100

curl filters (--trace-ascii)

http headers: Does not contain "CloudFlare" or "googleusercontent"

Instances with aggressive firewalls that return "Blocked" or "Rate limit exceeded" when queried with HTTP GET are unfortunately excluded.

How does the Random Searx Redirector work?

The HTML page contains a small amount of Javascript code and a predefined list of working servers. When you hit the search button it picks a random server from the list, combines the server and search query to make a URL, then fowards your browser to it. This is all done within the page so no data is leaked externally. (Note to users using the page "offline": You will need to update your local copy to keep the contained server list updated.)
