    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…

        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.
