The point is DDG has insisted that they put privacy first, & don't collect user data, then (supposedly) in the interest of a small performance increase they introduce code that — wait for it — COLLECTS USER DATA. All they would need to do is use {URL}/favicon.ico which most if not sites have. From what I understand according to posts on the github page this could be done on-device so no need for sending anything to a server. Then when the issue was opened it was closed without the issue being fixed.
