So you're scraping the info from the pages and displaying it in the DDG app? From the user's perspective it's a wonderful idea and I would love to use a search engine that did this well, but that could piss off a lot of website owners.
- epi0Bauqu 16y agoI had tested similar functionality on the Web site and never got any complaints. I'm only showing a snippet and linking to the real page, i.e. like all the other search engines. The only difference is that my snippet should be much better (when shown for these cases) in that it is a readable paragraph chosen for your particular search. That said, if anyone does have any issues with it, I'm happy to take that into account.
