No thanks. http://techrights.org/2021/03/15/duckduckgo-in-2021/
What the alternative? I came to DDG from Google and going back is non-negotiable. Brave search? Startpage?
Searx is pretty good.
I would use DDG (or any privacy search provider like startpage or Mojeek ) in Whonix and you want actual protections. Putting your faith in a for profit company to keep your safe when using their free online services ends in your being exploited somehow, somewhere, everytime. It’s inevitable if you’re the product.
I still think DDG is better than Google. Google can connect your search with lots of other services (email, youtube, android…). DDG obviously can’t do that.
Linux >>> Mac
It’s funny to see Mac users wants privacy.
