I wish they would re-name that web site, but it’s not going to happen just to make me happy.

As I understand it, DDG is literally BING. DDG uses BING search to get their results, they're not a separate search engine.

So whatever restricting BING does, DDG does also.

The only difference is that DDG does -not- track you, whereas BING -does-.

I’ve been using startpage for several years.

I don’t like what I am reading about DDG

So, what is a semi reliable search engine or must we hunt and peck for a tidbit or truth?

Search Engine Censorship Test Results: Find Out Which Search Engine Is The Least Censored

https://michaelsuede.substack.com/p/search-engine-censorship-test-results?s=r

The results were pretty shocking to me. Here’s a summary grid showing the highlights, but it’s worth reading the test results because this snapshot doesn’t tell the whole story.

Google: passed 2 out of 10 tests.
Bing: passed 7 out of 10 tests.
DuckDuckGo: passed 5 out of 10 tests.
Qwant: passed 5 out of 10 tests.
Startpage: passed 1 out of 10 tests.
Mojeek: passed 6 out of 10 tests.
Yandex: passed 9 out of 10 tests.

penalize sites which are associated with Russian disinformation.

Does this mean that CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, CBS... and virtually EVERY News Publication and the Entire Democrat Party will be Cancelled for the Russian Collusion with Trump, Disinformation???

It would be completely inappropriate to note what Weinberg and Zelinsky have in common.

I immediately switched from DDG to Brave Browser+Qwant search engine. So far, so good.

russian disinformation? like the US biolabs?

turns out, that was all true. we do have bioweapons labs in ukraine.

the disinformation was US disinformation.

would he block that? would he penalize the American media for trying to push that disinformation?

“Search engines by definition try to put more relevant content higher and less relevant content lower—that’s not censorship, it’s search ranking relevancy,” he added.

Lying f*cker. It is censorship if you bury search results to suit your bias.
