Constitutes: search engine

Gigablast is an open source search engine, which was made up of 500,000 lines of C and C++ as of January 2015.[1]

Lack of Bias or Blocking

As an open source engine, Gigablast is not expected to differentially treat any domain of search topic. As of January 2018, the ISGP site was hit #9 hit on Gigablast for the search term "Dutroux affair" (and was also in the top 10 for Yahoo[2], Bing[3], DuckDuckGo[4] and Yandex[5]). By contrast Google (and StartPage) appeared to have blocked the domain for that search term - not listing it in the top 100 hits.
