DuckDuckGo CEO blatantly announcing they "downrank" Russian "misinformation". Time to abandon it, if you haven't already. What's the next best search engine? (media.communities.win)

DDG has always been a side arm of Google. It is supposedly offers anonymity, bullshit. This is proved by predictive searches and indeed a data cache and the cookies being sent. But look at its options. Where it's supposedly not being stored. Tedious. It definitely is somewhat better than others. But every page has linked from Google.

There is no real anonymity today. It has become an assumption. Where almost every provider now is pinging to your location. Sometimes they offer forms of invisibility to certain access. But it's becoming a myth. Because it's being collected on many websites visited. To the point it is falling into the hands of real assholes. They aren't our laws, or indeed enforcement. They're prejudice services. Services exploiting gains.

This not a future ahead in any shape or form. Imagine services refusing you without accessing a complete dossier on you, and it's only an opinion driven by data, is what it is becoming, and wants too even more. A simple movie review, sends out angry actors. A dating app sends you to your providers address because it was a bot. Uber refusing to come to your address because you haven't let them access your phone's GPS, instead you inputted it. Where if you aren't holding your phone it starts bombarding you with alerts. It is simply sending them to verify you. These sites scamming you just to compromise your identity. Have 5 bucks free on paypal came up after I typed about a neural link. Or on using a VPN, everything starts shutting down like email, Netflix, Amazon. Imagine Alexa speaking in Spanish because you set your VPN location to South America. But seriously. A service that is prejudice and it still refuses regardless, and it still compromises your identity. No it isn't because of crime, the mindset being offered of guilty until proven innocent, it happens anyway. It's complete dystopia for gain, and control.

Topically it doesn't matter what you use.
