DuckDuckGo made a deal with the devil. Due to a confidential search agreement, the DuckDuckGo browser does not block all Microsoft trackers. What’s worse, DuckDuckGo only acknowledged this “privacy hole” after it was discovered by a security researcher."

Wonderful, isn't it? After the last Bing incident, then the censoring fiasco, then this.
Thank you. I knew duckduckgo was not good but didn't know why. Then I just went away from them and wen to Startpage.
I am glad this is coming out.
Startpage gives you Google results.
Used to be different. When did they change? There's another good one called Ecosearch. They plant trees when you use them.
It was always that way. They tell you themselves in their about us section.
I use Qwant 1st and Startpage as a backup.
Thanks frens
I have noticed this too
they literally tell you: https://www.startpage.com/en/about-us/?t=dark
