I’ve used them for at least 3 years and I can confirm they’ve changed a lot of the way the website works in that time: none for the better. True what others said: it is bias to the USA for search results regardless of your settings (where the company is located in fairness) and provides a huge deal of politically bias leanings which used to be far fairer at returning more neutral results for the things you search for, rather than complete polar-opposites. Like almost all good online services, DuckDuckGo has lost its way over these recent troubled years. Review 100 says: service NOT as advertised

To my absolute shock I noted that Googles Search Engine displayed ONLY far left leaning data response access- tabloids noted as left leaning, cable news outlets as same along with only favorable details related to former VP Joe Biden all the way on the first 5 pages of display on the 5th page I noted right leaning FOX news was for the first time mentioned with no mentions on WSJ or any other moderate-conservative leaning details anywhere in the prior 5 pages! Duck Duck Go on the other hand had ALL forms of identities both conservative, liberal and independent outlets- so beyond the privacy I noted that DDG also DOES NOT CENSOR or favor one political leaning against another! THAT ALLOWS FOR FAIR & BALANCED INFORMATION ACCESS I love the privacy capability and unbiased search results generated but also wanted to understand fair reporting/information access so recently conducted a generic research on political responses and entered in a simple statement 'Joe Biden News Today' in the search line- I did this both for Google and DDG to see what the search engine results would be. I love the privacy capability and the NON CENSORSHIP BIAS in search engine results!
