Very interesting to hear things from this perspective. I assume it is non-mainstream? (I would ask for a link, but I cannot read French.)

This has for sure made me more weary. Off-topic conspiracies today quickly become plausible theories tomorrow. I don't expect sources to be unbiased, but I do expect to be able to consider multiple perspectives.

Who fact-checks the fact-checkers? A large unaccountable 'authority' deciding what information you may or may not consume is _exactly_ what we are trying to avoid. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Don't get me wrong, I've enjoyed DuckDuckGo for years. If there is some reversal or this change is somewhat moderate, I will consider staying with them. For now I am just considering alternatives.
