In addition to being useful for finding information on the internet, search engines like Google and Bing store a lot of information from their users. There are always those who want to avoid this by looking for alternatives.
Some time ago, we published about the service DuckDuckGo, which bills itself as a non-collecting alternative search engine data by its users.
From the article Protect from Google: DuckDuckGo
Η DuckDuckGo is a search engine like Google. It is from 2008 and separates its position from the Google search giant in many different ways. After Snowden's revelations about America's and Britain's spy-based actions, alternatives like DuckDuckGo, are considered necessary. OR DuckDuckGo is a service Open Source. Open source allows control by all developers who wish to engage in its development. This means Safety. Look for Anonymous and get them Results you Instantly.
Immediately after publications της Washington Post και της Guardian για τις κατασκοπευτικές δράσεις της NSA στην αρχή του Ιούνη, ο αριθμός των αναζητήσεων στην DuckDuckGo έχει αυξηθεί σημαντικά. Τον Μάιο του 2013, λίγο πριν τις αποκαλύψεις Snowden, είχε κατά μέσο όρο 1,8 εκατομμύρια ερωτήματα αναζήτησης. Το νούμερο αυξήθηκε σε 4,4 εκατομμύρια τον Ιανουάριο του 2014.
Whether or not alternative search engines such as DuckDuckGo or Ixquick really protect you from NSA actions we do not know. But to date there has been no mention of DuckDuckGo, from Snowden's leaks that have seen the light of publicity.
