    DDG’s classic “Trust me bro” privacy policy.

    I don’t dislike DDG and I do use it, but goddamn I’d love to see a public audit of their privacy claims. DDG is closed source and they’ve only ever given Their Word TM about their claims. The privacy community puts a lot of faith in DDG despite not being able to test anything it says.

      Every service that claims to be private should be obliged to have a recent public audit available as a proof

          It’s also a subscription based search engine. After Neeva imploded I’m not going to be investing money into a subscription search service.
