I prefer Google. The full link is in green, it's justified left, the results are wider and don't take as much vertical room. There's a cache too. What does DDG

I prefer Google. The full link is in green, it's justified left, the results are wider and don't take as much vertical room. There's a cache too. What does DDG do better than Google? Does DDG have the crawling power of Google or does it pull in Google's results?
- Goladus 17y agoWhat does DDG do better than Google? SSL connection. Nothing logged. When I don't care about results personalization, and if I get results I am looking for, DDG has the superior service. Today, if an employee working for Big Evil uses google to do a search for "Software Developer open positions near Cambridge, MA", that search will likely be logged by websense and the internet firewall. That information might be found and used against you by a political enemy (when you work for Big Evil, political enemies emerge from the woodwork). A search made over an ssl connection won't log the details.
- adrianwaj 17y agoWill the SSL hide a post/get? The SERP still have the terms in the querystring. You can get SSL on other Google apps. Maybe not on search.
- paulbaumgart 17y agoYes, it will hide them. TLS runs at a protocol layer below HTTP: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security
