- Rated 2 out of 5by Spazticus, 7 months agoLet's face it: the search results are not as accurate as Google.
- Rated 2 out of 5by billegate, 10 months agol'intention est bonne mais cette extension provoque des problèmes avec les sites ayant des liens youtube 'impossible de visualiser la video sauf en navigation privée)
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 16068219, a year agoPas compatible avec les virements sécurisés sur labanquepostale.fr -- Limitation majeure pour mon usage
- Rated 2 out of 5by scruss, a year agoCauses 100% CPU usage when browsing AliExpress. Firefox Process Manager indicates most of this is uncaught exceptions from an alicdn subframe
- Rated 2 out of 5by muddypantz, a year agoUses Bing Microsoft trackers. Not as private as they say. Search for yourself on this topic.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Minifix, a year agoWorked fine until recently. Now it blocks interactive content such as buttons and links on most websites. Had to switch it off.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 12667051, 2 years agoSince the last update to many sites don't work any longer. I deactivated the extension.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 17164709, 2 years agoЗа*бал вылазить в каждом поисковом запросе. Мен это расширение на*уй не нужно, слишком оно назойливо
- Rated 2 out of 5by Cronodoug, 2 years agoExtreme censorship, but shows GORE content in common searches in safeshare and displays illogical content based on your address.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Jason, 2 years agoSeems to only protect within their search engine. And don't care for their engine's UI or results For me, this add-on is redundant.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 17052953, 2 years agoThe information this app provides is useful, but it keeps turning itself off and I have to re-enable it on every site I navigate to, rendering it fairly useless.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 13654059, 2 years agoBuono, ma perché la Email Protection è disponibile solo per i Chrome-based o per Firefox su Mac?
- Rated 2 out of 5by Rhonda, 2 years agoDuckDuckGo exhausts me. It rarely brings up what I'm looking for, even when I enter detailed queries with dates or simple queries. I find myself going to other search engines to find a current answer to my query.

- Rated 2 out of 5by CJ, 3 years agoI've used this extension for years; It previously worked very well to integrate DDG with my browser, and filter trackers without breaking websites. However, the decision by leadership to curate search results that they deem "fake" has adversely affected my opinion of this add-on.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Rick, 3 years agoSlows many websites to a painful crawl. Took me quite some time to pinpoint as I never thought DDG would be the culprit.
If you enjoy or need weather radar maps & such, this addon will render them almost useless...Developer response
posted 3 years agoHey sorry about this, do you have an example URL that we could test on your behalf? Thank you - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 14671411, 3 years agoBreaks logins on many sites. For example, Fedex.com gives me an error message when I try to log in. If I disable the DuckDuckGo extension and reload, I can log in with no problem. Too bad, because I love DuckDuckGo as a search engine. But this extension is apparently too aggressive for many websites to work properly.
- Rated 2 out of 5by DaveHove, 3 years agoI use this extension in Firefox on my home PC with no problems. However, when I try to use it on my work PC, Firefox won't load any web pages until I disable the extension - which is very frustrating. No doubt there is something different in settings which I am unaware of which is preventing the pages from opening?
The other extensions which I use, AdBlocker Ultimate & Facebook Contaner, seem to work fine on both PC's. - Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 14740581, 3 years ago
- Rated 2 out of 5by MKL.MH, 3 years agoJe n'ai rien contre l'extension, juste contre le moteur : Premier essai, première recherche, pas foutu de comprendre les mots clés que j'ai entré "graines de niger" ne m'a sorti pour résultat que des pages "graines de nigelle" aucun autre moteur de recherche que j'ai essayé ensuite ne s'est planté, c'est le seul ! Donc je n'ai pas de temps à perdre avec ce genre d’approximation.
- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 14816641, 3 years agoMostly works fine, but does block any and all access to banking websites. Unsure whether this is solvable, perhaps banks simply use too much tracking software or maybes it's an oversight
- Rated 2 out of 5by Chtiland, 4 years agoDDG is quite good search engine, but this extension makes too much slow-downs on many sites.
