DuckDuckGo a meta-search-engine! It relies mainly on Yahoo Boss API which uses Bing search (for most countries)! Yahoo Boss API turned from free to expensive in early 2015 and the future of Yahoo (tech company, not Alibaba stock) is uncertain.
We definitely need more search engines, only 6-7 exist that cover a wider range (international). Search on HN to retrieve the list, we had this discussion before.
