    Since DuckDuckGo’s inception, it’s been touted as a pro-privacy and anti-tracking search engine and has propelled the company from just a couple hundred thousand searches a month to over 100,000,000 searches every day. Their growth has been nearly exponential. But that all may be changing now and they have agreed to bow down to the psychopaths enslaving humanity.

    DuckDuckGo has long been a haven for those who do not want to participate in Google’s censorship, manipulation, and tracking wrote the Free Thought Project. In 2008, Gabriel Weinberg started this mission with an emphasis on protecting searchers’ privacy and avoiding the filter bubble of personalized search results that comes with all things Google.

    However, this week, all of that changed. Now, those with a dissenting opinion or one that doesn’t align with the ruling class’s official narrative won’t be able to have their information seen by others. Weinberg took everything his organization had been working on for years and flushed it down the toilet with a single tweet.

    Like so many others I am sickened by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the gigantic humanitarian crisis it continues to create. #StandWithUkraine️ At DuckDuckGo, we’ve been rolling out search updates that down-rank sites associated with Russian disinformation.

    While war is horrific, censoring people is equally horrific.

    “When you tear out a man’s tongue, you are not proving him a liar, you’re only telling the world that you fear what he might say.” ― George R.R. Martin, A Clash of Kings

    It’s obvious the ruling class is in a state of fear and has been for a while. Their desperation is showing, and yet, so many still don’t see beyond the veil of illusion they erected around us all.

    “The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it’s profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater.” -Frank Zappa

    While private businesses may choose who gets censored and who does not, if you tout yourself as a “censorship-free” platform, then resort to bowing to the oligarchs who craft the official narrative, you are going to lose business.

    “Where they have burned books, they will end in burning human beings.” ― Heinrich Heine

      1. I was reading something
        about this the other day.
        It’s really a shame that they
        bowed down on this. I used
        them for searches because
        I believed it would always be
        a less censorship type of
        thing. As we all know by now,
        Google censors basically all
        of your search results. It is
        absolutely sickening what is
        happening in this country.
        I only wish Duck Duck Go
        would have stood their
        ground.

      2. The solution?

        As we did back in the days of Fidonet before such advanced network systems as CompuServe and the WWW part of the internet, share links (it was BBS locations back then) with each other to establish networks known only to their users.

        The same as is done with the more deep, dark, and mysterious parts of the internet now.

        And Fax machines, don’t forget how we used Fax machines and shortwave either.

        • yep, miss some of them BBS’s.
          Not the sloooow speeds though.
          Think I might have an old zmodem around. Might have to use it again should the net ever ‘have problems’.

      4. DuckDuckGo search results haven’t seemed all that different from Google anyway, and when not, simply not as good.

        Most alt-news people follow links from their favorite alternative news sites.

        DDG would just be denying trends, but couldn’t stop what’s trending.

        • Use TOR + a privacy oriented search engine.
          You’ll be anonymous +.

          • “This sounds like an easily searchable FAQ, but the Internet is full of FUD and misinformation that is hard to shift through, so I’ll put effort into answering it. Please don’t delete your post.

            https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tor_(anonymity_network)

            Tor was essentially started by Dr. Paul Syverson (Naval Research Lab), Roger Dingledine (MIT at the time), and Nick Mathewson (also MIT at the time). Funding came through Syverson from the Office of Naval Research (ONR) and DARPA. Dingledine and Mathewson took code originally written by Matej Pfajfar and turned it into a fully fledged onion routing system, Tor: The Second-Generation Onion Router.

            The concept of onion routing — which Tor famously implements — was not completely invented by these exact guys, but by Dr. Syverson, Dr. Michael G. Reed, and Dr. David Goldschlag all at the Naval Research Lab in the mid 90s. https://www.onion-router.net/

            The story sounds like it may contain elements of truth. It takes serious money and talent to create things like this and fedgov has tentacles everywhere.

      5. DuckDuckGo NEVER PROMOTED themselves as unbiased and uncensored. They ONLY promoted themselves as private. Big difference there people. The DDG search engine is based on the Bing engine so in many ways it WAS ALREADY BIASED, and DDG knew it, but kept that piece hidden. We all assumed it was unbiased and uncensored when they advertised it as a private search engine. That was a wrong assumption amongst many of us. It was always censored, now you just know censorship at DDG is alive and well, and it always has been (unless you feel that B
        ill Gates’s bing is fair and impartial.

      6. PREP TIP FOR WEEK AFTER NEXT:
        If you have an electric water heater you can convert it to solar easily. They make a kit (element and thermostat) for a cheap price (about 50-60 bux). Search ebay seller “hurricanewindpowercom” You just select the wattage you need (30+ gallon tank I would get 1K watt). Select the voltage, 48 volts is the most efficient and needs smaller wire. Find a location on your roof closest to the water heater that will fit 1k of solar panels and face south or build a rack. Replace the bottom element of your water heater with the one in the kit. Mount the thermostat in an accesible location against the inner part of the tank. Wire the solar panels (however you need to get correct voltage) directly through the thermostat and to the element. Leave the upper element connected to grid power for backup. Walla, you now have solar water heat! Time your hot water usage for late afternoon or early evening when the water in the tank is hottest. For less than 1K you have free hot water. I used to do solar for a company in Reno and they used the glycol circulation type. WHAT A STUPID RIPOFF that was! 40% efficient, a plumbing nightmare, ultra expensive, had to have a special tank, leaks and problems all the time, on and on. An average 40-50 gallon tank system installed was about 10 grand! And it was a pile of shit! If you have a gas water heater and it goes bad or you just want to save money and have hot water in a power outage, consider replacing it with an electric unit and convert it. It’s easy, problem free, saves a ton of money! You can thank me later 😀

        • If your a morning shower kinda guy I would wrap your heater with one of those insulated blanket things. The upper grid element will provide if needed. Some people use a smaller tank with 100% solar heat to prime a larger heater to make it work less. One of these days I will tell you about the most expensive, stupidest, lawsuit waiting to happen systems I have ever seen by far lol.

        • You do tips every week

          • Sometimes, getting backed up though hence week after next lol.

      7. Duck Duck Go was created by Jewish Gabriel Weinberg. All of his claims about “privacy, security…” were Jewish Lies. You must learn that “There is no clean s*hit. There is no good Jew. Jew is Jew.”

      8. Shockingly in tests, Yandex, the Russian search engine was found to be the least censored search engine giving the best results.
        How far the West has fallen.

        • DiclDuckGo is a partner company of Yandex.

          • AFAIK the duckduckgo partnership is that they use a web crawler to get results from yandex if related to Russian queries or for searches in the Russian language.

            Rumor says that the Russian.gov collects data from yandex, but I don’t know. It wouldn’t surprise me if ALL .govs stored search data.

      9. I never fall for the hype. been using startpage for years with no problems. People were constantly telling me to use duck duck go but something told me it was a setup. they just lured people to their platform by claiming to be free speech and then once they got enough people there they started to censor everything. stop falling for the hype. you people are like fish you all jump every time someone flashes something shiny.
