I have always liked and used Duck duck go more than google but now i am considering if i should switch because of the shit they pulled with their app and yesterday when i clicked a link it took me directly to their newsletter subsciption page not even like a popup a proper page without any way except manually backing out . So is there a better alternative or is DDG still the best ?
What “shit” did they “pull with their app”?
All I gathered from your post is that you want to ditch DDG because of a newsletter issue. Please explain your privacy and security concerns.
Agreed.
They allowed some company to track users (I don’t remember which one but if i had to guess micrososft) it was a big thing at that time and they came out and said it was only for the people who used their mobile app and not the search engine . But come on they had to wait till someone caught them to come out ? That breaks some trust like how do we know right now they aren’t pulling some shit and will come out with an explanation tommorow when someone catches them.
