I only ever use DDG with Tor Browser Bundle, because even though they are a 'privacy first' search engine, it doesn't stop some intel agency sitting in their data center and being able to attribute certain search queries to specific users.
As a bonus: Last time I checked The Tor Browser Bundle displays a prompt anytime the canvas API is used in some javascript, and you can opt out of canvas fingerprinting this way.
I know DDG doesn't always have the results you are looking for, but for more long-tail queries and advanced searches I can use Startpage[0] which basically proxies the results from Google (using vanilla Google with Tor is a pain because of captchas).
