• Just a reminder that WhatsApp is also owned by Facebook

  Meaning, you can go to public instances like searx.me,. Here's the documentation on how to start it up. But , you dont have to trust Searx that they are good people nor do you have to trust their data habits like DDG. Source: about 2 years ago

• Instead of lashing out at duckduckgo for doing what they think is best, ask the deeper question of why we’re all still using centralized services and being disappointed when they behave in a predictably centralized way.

  Consider a future where something like https://searx.me/ is as ubiquitous as Tor. Source: about 2 years ago

• DDG, once a hero has now fallen.

  For those looking for a replacement for Duckduckgo; I would highly recommend using Searx. It's an open source privacy respecting search engine with many decentralized private instances you can swap between. The link I sent is the primary instance, but here is a link with dozens more, and my own private instance. Source: about 2 years ago

  I recommend you use swisscows.com to search instead, its not censored in the same way that duckduckgo.com and google.com is censored with different results appearing. Source: over 1 year ago

• I thought Brave didn't collect data? Am I missing something.

  I use brave, google (for technical subjects when I can't find answer with brave), and for anything that has a remote chance to be censored I use engines with their own crawlers : fireball.de, gigablast.com, yandex.com and other browsers to be sure but I don't think they have their own crawler : lycos.com, swisscows.com, mojeek.com, metager.de.
