What Is DuckDuckGo?
It is a search engine which claims to be 100% private. It aims to provide an unmonitored searching experience. It does not store IP addresses, does not log user information, and uses cookies only when required. If truly embraced by the public, it may become a serious threat to Google, which it is becoming recently.
What Is DuckDuckGo’s Privacy Policy?
Gabriel Weinberg, the creator of DuckDuckGo, states: “By default, DuckDuckGo does not collect or share personal information. That is our privacy policy in a nutshell.” They aim to provide similar search results to everyone without any categorization based on the previous search results.
What does DuckDuckGo Mean?
It is odd that Weinberg states that the name ‘DuckDuckGo’ popped in his mind from a game named “Duck Duck Goose” and it has no hidden meaning of it. Hope it all be as simple as it sounds and as transparent as it portrays itself of being.
