It's very disappointing that DDG is resorting to the same whinny PR tactics as the less than savory competitors. It's fairly easy and straight forward to add DDG to Chrome or Android, much easier than other platforms in fact, you’re not bei

Just so that everyone is on the same page on what is being discussed here: this is a “study” by a competitor who can't implement personalised search and thus is spreading FUD to spin that as a differentiating advantage. It might be a good m

They have everything to do with the piracy and payment points raised, and I'd argue that a direct link can be charted between securing developer compensation and the availability of games. As for the title: being 2nd place is hardly a "deso

So beneath the baiting title the author's points boil down to "there are more exclusive games on iOS", and "Android owners are cheap pirates", there is no mention of paid app encryption nor the increasing payment options (carrier billing, g

Why did they use the most alarmist title possible if they were going to debunk it immediately after?!

This is a bunch of alarmist nonsense. For starters this is no "backdoor" it's front and center, and the author acts as if the concept of locking a user profile behind a password on the OS level is a completely foreign one. Client side softw

Of course the fact that it's free is relevant, your argument is about switching costs and in this case the costs are literally nil. Also their search is not a platform it's a service (no API).

Not sure if you've noticed but they are being investigated. Investigations however do not imply guilt, and this is not a criminal investigation so it's not analogous to your example. There is no clear and shut case here, no evidence of ca
