Total bullshit. Duckduckgo uses Bing, not google.

Do your own fucking search.

This claim is FALSE:
This claim is not accurate:
DuckDuckGo (DDG) does NOT use the Google API for search results. "In fact, DuckDuckGo gets its results from over four hundred sources".

There's still weird censorship on DDG.

I'm going to try that webcrawler search site that somebody mentioned.

There is a reason why DuckDuckGo is shilled everywhere and StartPage isn't.

Fuck startpage too. Use searx.

Don’t just switch, host your own instance.

DuckDuckGo for sure censors all pizzagate info, whether or not they use Gulag or Bing.

How much of that goes to google analytics? Answer: who cares. Use the internet to your advantage don’t let these scareniggers back you off from resources they openly use. Exploit everything...your enemy surely will.

Interesting that one needs to use a search product from EU for privacy.
"Qwant is a European web search engine, launched in July 2013 and operated from Paris. It's not the only EU-based search engine with its own indexing engine. It claims not to employ user tracking and doesn't personalize search results in order to avoid trapping users in a filter bubble. It is available in 13 languages."

Hopefully Startpage is not so (((infested)))

Startpage was founded by a Christian patriot, but it uses Google.

It is ok to use google as backend IF the search query has no magic ID attached to it

Use searx. Startpage is just google, still censored results.

As far as I know, Google bought DDG quite a while ago.

I went to search for that info, couldn't find anything about it.
