That's because the warrants all go to Bing, lol.

  Are you saying that DuckDuckGo passes the client ip address to Bing?

    Or people look up "bad" stuff using that search engine (Bing is notorious for porn).

    Perhaps not everything. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DuckDuckGo https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DuckDuckGo "It uses various APIs of other websites to show quick results to queries and for traditional links it uses the help of its partners (mainly Bing) and its own crawler."

    I think the bigger point here is that it's impossible to know either way because DDG doesn't undergo independent verification of their privacy. It's closed-source code from a privately-owned, for-profit corporation based in the U.S. We have no idea what information they share or don't share, other than the claims they make about themselves.
