Is DuckDuckGo safe to use and private?ĭuckDuckGo is a search engine that prioritizes user privacy. Searching on any device, be it a mobile phone, laptop, or desktop, will always be a secure and private experience for you.ĭuckDuckGo is primarily a search engine, but it also offers downloadable programs and browser add-ons for every popular platform and web browser. It supports a highly encrypted HTTPS version, which eliminates the possibility of search leakage and third-party cookies being stored in the user’s browser. In order to protect your anonymity online, DuckDuckGo makes use of a strict pledge that guarantees your IP address will never be recorded. DuckDuckGo’s main focus is on providing a secure search experience for its users, so it doesn’t offer as many extra features as Google does. I don't know how these big Internet corporations are not getting sued left and right while being dismantled for privacy infringement, data collection, biased search presentation, and monopoly like business practice.Launched in 2008, DuckDuckGo is an alternative to Google Search that emphasizes privacy and security. I don't know what a good option is, but duckduckgo is not it. In short, this website is a pathetic excuse for a search engine who tries to get people to use it based on blatant lying as advertising. Well, I can watch videos without going to actual websites like Youtube, which store cookies, so there's that! No, duckduckgo loves cookies, and furthermore, the feature that allows you to watch those videos on duckduckgo is disappearing due to cookie blocking, which was stored anyway. At least they don't sell data, right? Suuuuuure, that's why Google can provide suggestions based on duckduckgo searches.
Unbiased searches? You'll be quick to notice omitted results of websites or entire opinions, so that too is a pipe dream. Good search results? No, your research will be a pain to complete. Privacy? No, that's observably and obviously a lie. Yes that's right, the ONLY place you can ask questions is from a social media site where trolls regularly downvote people for asking or answering questions! GREAT IDEA DUCK DUCK GO! I'll be sure to not ask any questions and never use your search engine again! They suggest you ask questions in "their community," by which they mean a SUBREDDIT. I wanted to get in contact with them, but as the reputable business they are they don't provide any way to do so. I swear, I would allow someone to look over my shoulder at every search I make if it would ensure I get a search engine that actually functions as a search engine and not as a glorified marketing tool.
I sure hope nobody tracks these results that are completely irrelevant to my search! That would be just terrible! Oooh boy it doesn't track me, how useful when it doesn't ever find any useful results. It's complete trash! It works about on par with Google, another piece of trash. What confuses me the most is why people gush over this search engine. Seriously, you can't even give THREE RESULTS before pulling up stuff that I didn't type and ignoring my quotes? My god. I wish I could find a search engine that actually searches for what I type into it but I guess I might as well just give up on even using them anymore because they're all as utterly garbage as this one. Even words in QUOTES, totally ignored within a few results.
You know it's useless when you type in a search request, and within a few results it's already pulling results that don't have the words you typed.
