I am seeing a lot of links here in voat about the increment in usage of "privacy oriented" browser ddg. It has not yet be proven that DDG violates your privacy, but it is highly probable given the previous history of its founder. It is openly known (even wikipeda has info about it)

Alternatives? I am using searx, it is an aggregator, you can choose which engines to use, it is opensource and there is many instances so you can use which ever you want, and even host your own. https://searx.me https://searx.me/about

Edit: Thanks @sbt2160p for this link: https://8ch.net/tech/ddg.html

Edit2: You can make voat a source (preferences > engines > social media > voat) and search directly in voat with !vo (Example https://searx.me/?q=%21vo%20duckduckgo)

While Yandex and Baidu track you, you might get different patterns of censorship to help give you a fuller picture from different perspectives (Russia and China).

Thanks for the longer list. I need to stop using DUCK DUCK GO.

DUCK DUCK GO caught CENSORING HERE less than a month ago!

Duck Duck Go for 24 hours until exposed here on voat.co BANNED AND TOTALLY DELETED the infamous website and brower plugin from "coincidencedetector.com" that puts ((( ))) echoes on jewish names from a remote database.

Search voat.co v/Technology section archives and you can find a substantial thread on the TOTAL CENSORSHIP of https://coincidencedetector.com/ by DDG

typing even the COMPLETE DOMAIN NAME "coincidencedetector.com" got 0 hits on any page!!!

It was programmatically shoah'd by that Jewish company.

They were starting to get noticed quickly for that shit, and relented the next day
