- dredmorbius 6y agoLargely from != "a front-end for Bing" (with merely being strongly implied). In addition to additional privacy and Instant answers content, DDG seems to source other Web search for SERP, including operating its own bot, DuckDuckBot. https://help.duckduckgo.com/duckduckgo-help-pages/results/duckduckbot/ https://help.duckduckgo.com/duckduckgo-help-pages/results/du... The problem with your response above is that it is inaccurate, fails to acknowledge real value-add features[1] of DDG, as well as being dismissive and stale as originally noted. ________________________________ Notes: 1. I've addressed these numerous times, though quality, relevance, presentation, JS-free version, bash-function invocability, and additiinal features with time, as well as simply Not Being Google, are all major factors.
