In DuckDuckGo's implementation at least it looks like they proxy all requests to Yelp so there is nothing Yelp gets from you in a non anon way.

  Unfortunately it's incredibly difficult to become fully anonymous. Yelp can infer who you are by things like your home address (a few searches to see how far away restaurants are, for instance) This Wikipedia article has a few examples https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_re-identification https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_re-identification

    Does distance calculation even go to yelp though? That sounds like a job of the map platform.

    So if DuckDuckGo proxies your requests and they are mixed in with all other requests, how would Yelp combine your searches?
