And Searx is the same. And startpage is just google.

But the point is they don’t track.

DDG was letting Bing track users. They may have stopped now that they got in trouble for it.

Wait really?

Best I could find was this arstechnica article from 2022:

Microsoft trackers run afoul of DuckDuckGo, get added to blocklist: Search privacy company still needs Bing, but won’t allow Microsoft’s trackers. https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2022/08/microsoft-trackers-run-afoul-of-duckduckgo-get-added-to-blocklist/
