Cons
Con Not updated
However DMOZ makes use of volunteers to oversee each category and if you have ever tried to submit something to DMOZ you will agree that the volunteers don't do much volunteer work. Therefore the system is very outdated and should be retired in my opinion.
Con Uses only Bing and Ecosia results
The latter of which could be their own crawler.
