Is DuckDuckGo illegal?
Although you can now once again search for popular torrenting sites on DuckDuckGo, downloading movies, TV shows, games and other software isn't just illegal but you also run the risk of having your system infected with malware (opens in new tab) and other viruses.
Can you be tracked with DuckDuckGo?
Unlike Google, Yahoo, and Bing, DuckDuckGo doesn't collect cookies, IP addresses, or user-agent data (like your device information or the web browser you use). It also doesn't track your searches in a way that links them back to you.
Why did China ban DuckDuckGo?
Why did China ban DuckDuckGo? Instead, it now redirects users on the mainland to the company's Hong Kong servers. The only western search engines allowed to operate on Chinese soil agreed to censor their results, including Bing and Yahoo. DuckDuckGo does not censor its search results, which might be why it was blocked.
Can you access the dark web using DuckDuckGo?
DuckDuckGo. The darknet version of DuckDuckGo is not a search engine for the dark web, but a private browsing tool for the dark web. DuckDuckGo's regular site can take you to the dark web, as it brings up onion sites and dark web links when searched.
