Search Results

Posted on 01/27/2017 1:27:51 PM PST by Allen In Texas Hill Country

Been using DuckDuckgo on Firefox forever. A few hours ago the results of a search dramatically changed and I don't know what I did. The results are from all over the world and whereas in the past if I clicked on a result a checkmark would get posted on that entry. Now that doesn't happen anymore. I tried and tried searching for how I screwed things up with no success.

So to take a break from politics if something is obvious to someone can they give me clue????

Thanks for the info on Startpage. Always open to new private/search options. I am curious though, why don’t you like DuckDuckGo?

Sounds too good to be true?

Paranoia mostly. When a web browser tries to force a particular search engine on the user a red flag goes up in my mind. When said search engine proclaims “We don’t track you.” the flag becomes a siren and flashing lights.

Fair enough and an interesting thought.
