This. And it also should be said that the Metro.co.uk is quite garbage sensationalism . I don't know many who use their browser, personally I moved over to Bra

  I use Brave's browser and search too. Sad to hear that DDG lost it's integrity with this move.

    To be honest, I would trust more DDG than Brave still. Brave’s business model is based on ads which is very controversial, and that model always ends up compensating with the cost of user privacy.

      The business model of the internet is ads.

  Metro is from the same group that brings you the daily mail, of course it's garbage

  This is actually a really classic use of the 'ad hominem' to try and reject the argument by attacking the source. I do agree that Metro is a bad source, however if you read the article, you'd find it's not actually that bad. I say this because NPR was running the same angle yesterday, and several "more reputable" sources are reporting the same thing as well. Frankly, for DDG to spend all this money blasting "we actually care about privacy" advertisements in radio and online, and then to play around like this, it's certainly dangerous. That advertising campaign is probably why news outlets are even discussing this. "You defined your brand standard, why shouldn't we hold you to it". I'm sure their marketing folks are upset! All that money on a message, undone in a flash.
