The fact is, if the large organisations such as Google or Microsoft could not admit on the record to participation in PRISM, what makes you think Duck will? Further, if PRISM is real and if large organisations such as Google or Microsoft could not say "no", what makes you think Duck will have an option for a different fate? Lastly, if there is no trucking by gov of your searches, then there is not much different in using Google versus Duck for someone who has been using Google for years and just temporarily switched to Duck.

- yardie 13y agoUnder which law. Current data retention laws are you have to retain what you say you retain. So if your stated policy is 90 days but you only keep 30, you are not compliant.
