    Isn’t it Duck Duck Go that sent metadata to Microsoft, also if they denied it.

    • Interesting so I guess they use Microsoft ad services and thus send data to Microsoft. I just like their search results because they’re less spammy than Google. Also I found Google sensors their search results a bit more. Let’s say your trying to find a site for pirate streaming. You’ll have better luck with DuckDuckGo.

        Searching for pirate streaming/illegal websites on Google is in general not a good idea…

      @pingu, I can’t detect nothing apart of some anonymous data.
      DDG is not my favorite search engine, but it can be considered private and reliable.

        Sorry, I remembered it wrong… the problem was that DuckDuckGo stopped blocking Microsoft trackers. But it seems that the contract with Microsoft was terminated after the discovery.

          @pingu, anyway it’s good to have several search engines at hand, apart of DDG, Startpage, Qwant, Mojeek f.Exmp. are good options.
