Description

DuckDuckGo is a free browser that provides the most comprehensive online privacy protection in one app. Unlike most popular browsers, it has powerful privacy protections by default, including our search engine that doesn’t track your history and over a dozen other built-in protections. Millions of people use DuckDuckGo as their go-to browser to protect their everyday online activities, from searching to browsing, emailing, and more. FEATURE HIGHLIGHTS • Search Privately by Default: DuckDuckGo Private Search comes built-in, so you can easily search online without being tracked. • Block Most Trackers Before They Load: Our 3rd-Party Tracker Loading Protection exceeds what most popular browsers offer by default, stopping hidden tracking scripts from loading and collecting your personal data. • Enable Built-in Email Protection: Block most email trackers and hide your existing email address with @duck.com addresses. • Automatically Enforce Encryption: Shield your data from network and Wi-Fi snoopers by forcing many sites to use an HTTPS connection. • Escape Fingerprinting: Make it harder for companies to create a unique identifier for you by blocking attempts to combine info about your browser and device. • Sync and Backup: Securely sync bookmarks and passwords across your devices. We feature many protections not available on most browsers, even in private browsing mode, including protection from link tracking, AMP tracking, and more.   EVERYDAY PRIVACY CONTROLS • Clear your tabs and browsing data in a flash with the Fire Button. • Banish cookie pop-ups and automatically set your preferences to minimize cookies and maximize privacy.   • Signal Your Privacy Preference with Global Privacy Control (GPC) built into our app. GPC intends to help you express your opt-out rights automatically by telling websites not to sell or share your personal info. Whether it can be used to enforce your legal rights depends on the laws in your jurisdiction. PRIVACY PRO  Subscribe to Privacy Pro for:  • Our VPN: Secure your connection on up to 5 devices.  • Identity Theft Restoration: If your identity is stolen, we’ll help restore it.  Sync across DuckDuckGo apps: Activate your subscription in other DuckDuckGo apps.

    I love their approach to the internet, it’s refreshing to see someone who truly cares about privacy, I’ve gone through the nightmare of no privacy with Google, I’m just a number, an unimportant one at that, DDG rocks, privacy is a reality here, I will gladly go all in with DDG, with the luxury of never looking back!
  • Yay for Privacy. AI Optional.

    I’ve been using DuckDuckGo for a few days now as a more private alternative to Google. It’s been great so far, and I have no complaints. It’s informative and easy to see tracking attempts on websites that I visit (just press the shield button on the address bar). Super quick (and dare I say satisfying?) to clear my history and tabs all at once with the Fire button. You can also change the animation it does, which is fun, or turn off the animation entirely. You do you. The settings are easy to navigate and understand. Okay so, the world is in this AI kick right now. Personally, I don’t want to use it. And I don’t wanna further destroy the environment through my search engine usage. SO. I appreciate how DuckDuckGo alerts you when DuckAssist (an AI function) is used for the first time, and allows you to easily turn it off. Unlike Google, which forces you to use AI with no way to turn it off 🙃 Optional should be the bare minimum but whatever. DuckDuckGo is cool. Recommend. 🦆

    I have used DuckDuckGo for the past several years, I liked the idea that it didn’t sell my information, except it has become more and more apparent that it is beyond biased in the information and search results the site chooses to show. A simple search of any question political or current event focused will produce results specifically excluding Fox News, CSPAN, NEWSMAX, The Wall Street Journal or anything even close to right of center with MSNBC, The New York Times, BBC, LA Times, NBC, and CNN taking the first 2 pages on a simply search for “Donald Trump”. I’m beyond disappointed and don’t supporting companies that are trying to manipulate the public’s access to information.
