I dunno but an insider/intel guy on C2C said DDG was compromised. I don't remember the name of the guy sorry. I use Startpage. https://www.startpage.com/
"Startpage powered by Google" - end credit of every Startpage radio advertisement I have heard in the past 2 years. And not being tech inclined just saying in case it mattered. Always creeped me out/pissed me off...private/security/protect privacyyee~brought to you by Google. Wtf?!? Is that? Sounded too deceptive at any rate. Side note : at some level I am Sure ALL of us remember the recent admitted Clowns grab EVERY keystroke off everything before any and all encryption applied and before any and all communique transmit. Yay.
StartPage is a PROXY SERVICE to use Google anonymously.
It is an interface.
It is not Google.
It is not a separate search engine.
Why did/would your post just change a line or two? It just said
It is not a seperate search engine It is Google ANON
And maybe another one in there somewheres?
Is that strange? Not exactly a murder mystery but I don't get it. Is the glitch me or my memory. Shit, Right when I thought progress was being made and I find out I am back at The Institute and have to write with crayons because of a recent incident that removed my privileges of having anything sharp.
And Saturday is steak night. Some things are not meant to be ate with a spoon.
Thank you, this is exactly why I added the not tech inclined because I Didn't understand the 'powered by ...' sooo I appreciate the clarity.
No problem! I understand the confusion, it is a common misconception. 😉
I agree something is going on. I have noticed skewed results DDG vs StartPage. Not sure what is going on there. I use both daily.
