Why would Bing cancel, they're presumably making money off of the arrangement. And DDG-users would likely not migrate to Bing, but to Google: if you have to use a product by an anti-privacy-corporation, might as well use the good one.
- ffpip 6y agoWell, the fact that DDG gets more users than Bing would be embarrassing for Bing.
- willio58 6y agoEh, was it embarrassing when Chrome was built on Webkit and they had more usage than Safari? I don't think so.
- mistermann 6y agoSomeone might strongly suggest the idea to them.
- adammenges 6y agoYour google point is pretty valid, they’d be removing a source of income and sending users to a competitor. I think DDG is fine for the time being.
- indigochill 6y ago>might as well use the good one While I do believe Google has the superior search engine, there may also be an argument for denying them the "vertical integration of identity". That is, if you use Gmail and Google Search, Google can figure out more about you (in theory) than if you use just Gmail. Same reason I never -ever- use Facebook SSO for logging into non-Facebook sites.
