FWIW though, I think that agreement no longer applies. I getchu though, on the principle of the matter, assuming they actually lied about it. E.g., if they said, “we don’t let any tracking through,” without mentioning their deal with Microsoft. If they just said, “we block most trackers,” and let people hype it up in their heads though, that’s kind of a gray area IMHO.
DDG also curates/censors/biases the results though.
And even if the company thinks it’s for a good reason, they’ve set themselves a precedent and now we don’t know what else they could be curating, censoring or biasing in their search results.
