    DDG has never been able to secure my trust. I am an IT professional who has rigorously tested dozens of search engines. My five favorites are: Brave, MetaGer, Mojeek, Qwant, and Swisscows -- none of which are hosted in the USA. DDG is nearly as insecure as Google or BIng.

    DDG's lack of transparency in operating policies, blocking trackers, yet allowing some trackers (anonymous or not) without clearly informing users destroys trust and credibility.

    If you read the entire DDG policies, you will discover that they pass data to affiliates eBay and Amazon.

    За*бал вылазить в каждом поисковом запросе. Мен это расширение на*уй не нужно, слишком оно назойливо

    I was an avid user of DuckDuckGo until now. Today, October 25, 2022, DuckDuckGo started hanging when I tried doing internet searches. The page connections always timed out. I removed the add-on, then searched with Google, no problem, successful search. Actually went so far as to refresh Firefox (most current version 106.0.1) which meant losing all my other add-ons. DuckDuckGo search engine failed (timed out); Google search engine worked fine. If this is ever remedied I'll use this search engine again. Until then, Google has my business.

    When installing this extension, I feel like I'm using the dark web.

    Extreme censorship, but shows GORE content in common searches in safeshare and displays illogical content based on your address.
