I see you added Qwant! Perhaps you've seen it already, but in some locations, Qwant returns gibberish for search results. It's not blocked exactly, as there are results, but they're nonsense.

For example, in Japan and Singapore it looks like this.

I don't know that there's anything to do about it, but just letting you know. I can use a different proxy list for them, since they're special.
