The whole method that YouTube have used to set this up is worrying to me. In the space that the video is supposed to show there is simply a link to a website that you use to upload your details. It's a phisherman's dream.

My understanding is that “DDG” have their own “web crawler”? What I understand from your reply is that they don’t? So if I search on Bing for a specific keyword, I will get the same results from DDG. What about misspelled words? I have used
