- DuckDuckGo Vs Google. What is DuckDuckGo and how does it work? Is DuckDuckGo private? What personal information does Google store about you? Does DuckDuckGo track you? How does DuckDuckGo make money? Does DuckDuckGo have ads? What's the point of DuckDuckGo? Does DuckDuckGo protect my anonymity?
In this video, we discuss the rise of DuckDuckGo and how founder Gabriel Weinberg set out to create a a search engine and browser that protects users' privacy.

But how DuckDuckGo earn money
I wish we had something to replace youtube :
@@terrinelson4737 Did you see this on Rumble?
Theres Storyfire
Indeed, then I could fully sever my ties with Google...The Dream😌
@@cameraman655 there are phone's you can get now that are open source and goggle free. 800.00 usd. I'll get one when the price comes down a bit but it's worth the money now.
@@terrinelson4737 does rumble have ads every few seconds? I remember youtube without any ads.
Now we need DuckTube,Duckbook and Quack.
I would love to see DuckTube
Quacker
@Pahar'kh Bozing All great but I prefer Ducktube to Watchduck. Of course Quacker (Twitter).
Ducc Hub
@@niccatipay Xduck
I think I’m going to start saying “duck it” instead of “google it” lol
"quack it"
"searching it" will suffice imo
Fuck it
Hmm, DuckDuckGo could easily make a viral advertisement using that phrase.
Quack search
Funny how I was a Google user and I never heard of DDG until recently. Never once was it shown on Google.
That’s part of the reason Google stays dominant. My guess is 90% or more of users aren’t aware alternatives exist.
Why would it? Unless you specifically tried searching for "search engines"
That G simply blacked them out is IMO a sign that they feel threaten by DDG and their future prospects.
TotallMax is right, google search '
Search Engines', first result I get is '17 Great Search Engines You Can Use Instead of Google'.
Most people aren't aware of friendproject.net looks like original Myspace but they don't have an app or video chat. Delete Facebook
Yep, I ‘ve been a satisfied DDG user for two years now, I just hope they hold true to their beliefs in privacy and do not sell out,
Haha. I guess everyone has their price!
Indeed, once they become monopoly, they become tyrants.
Like Firefox?
@@InAltum. Yep...
Me too.
I only use duckduckgo because ducky is cute
Each to their own!
That’s part of the reason I use it too 😀
Axis Gaming is back lol lol
Linux Too
bruh though it's just me
I really hope duckduckgo don't suffer the same fate as Parler, or worse, they give up their philosophy on privacy because of presure from government
It’s only a matter of time...
@@RockStar-ev9fv agreed
Government? Just move your company to a better place.
it's not the government as much as even more ads being a concern - and SEO money that could be a concern. but if they went the way of Google [which I don't think they will], they'd likely lose the lion's share of their user base, since we go there for more privacy. plus, I also use Startpage, so I'd drop duckduckgo altogether if it ever succumbed to being like Google.
Rockstar 😩🤘🤘😣🎸
Switched!! Deleted facebook twitter insta and whatsapp as well
same...
Same here
No matter what, I will never delete Facebook, Twitter Insta and Whatsapp only because I have never, and will never use them.
#EndBigTech
That's the way to go :)
I wish DuckDuckGo would start an email service. I have used Yahoo for 23 years and am really getting tired of their incessant ads, not to mention leftist propaganda.
Criptext is other email service ✌🏻
Not only email services but services for everything like google videos,maps,photo cloud,app store because i want to change to other services but nobody use them so i forced to stay in google.I want to believe that until 2030 we will have better and safer choices.
Use protonmail dude! It’s like best free alternative to gmail and yahoo
@@DSX1 they still store your email on servers where it could be hacked. Criptext doesn't store it, but if you send to or receive from a service that does store it (Yahoo, Gmail, etc.) then it can still be hacked.
One thing about Yahoo is that they keep your security very good,
As soon as they hit the magic number, the government will be all over them.
@Dalej Lama The THOR was invented by the U.S Navy as a device to use in a secret communication net(Known today as DeepWeb) so..... The Gov. can do all kinds of shit that they want.
My main problem with Google isn't them storing private information... it's them preventing me from getting the search results I want. If you're looking for negative feedback or something that may be up for dispute, they often only display positive results. Basically they're giving you a hard time for finding the information that they don't want people to see.
You know what's quite creepy? There's a feature where you can just say "Hey Google" and the assistant pops up. So to find out if you're saying hello Google the phone must listen to your speech all times and plus collect data on your speech to find if it's really you who is saying this.
@@78anurag Google claims that they aren't collecting data. Same for Apple. Of course we all know that they are.

Surprised that google would allow this video to survive for 3 months
Google owns RUclips,
@@eve36368 thats the point
That would basically mean that they acknowledge everything considering DuckDuckGo as a threat. As a grown up, you don't have much of a fear from a child. So you let it play with the toys.
If it gets big enough, they will buy it and kill it.
This was actually on my list of suggestions. And I'm not even subbed to the channel.
I remember using this at college, whilst ironically studying internet security, and ecommerce strategies.
are you still using it?
I saw it on a school computer because someone probably used it to bypass the search history, now I use it.
After Google's threats to Australia, I would guess that DDG is getting a lot of Australian users transferring from Google.
Google isn't threatening australia.. it's literally the other way around... Australia wants to fundamentally change the way news is shared or linked in google services in a way that isn't exactly better for the end user
Can you provide some sources that explain the Google situation in Australia? Am wondering if it’s similar to how China restricts info access & exchange?
@@William-Morey-Baker Google is showing the news as small articles on its search results, whilst taking the profits from the advertising on its search site. What this means is that people are reading the news on the google search page but not actually clicking onto the news site to read the news article. The news sites are producing content but are not getting paid for that content.
That is, Google is taking the content made by news sites, showing it in brief articles on their own search page and reaping in the profits from using others content without paying them for that content.
If google is going to put up small articles on its search results it can either pay for that content or it can do what DuckDuckGo does and provide a link to the news site for people to click into and read the news.
@James Brenton edge is built on chromium, which is still partly controlled by google. your play
Did you know that Google is a member of Scientology...which figures, because the sect is evil.
I switched to DDG over a month ago and I can tell you without a doubt it’s privacy works. After switching, I no longer get targeted, personalized ads or suggestions on RUclips, FB, IG, Apple, etc. These companies share user data. By just changing your search engine, you greatly reduce their stranglehold and monopoly.
For all things political, DuckDuckGo can't be beat.
GIBIRU is better
been using it exclusively for 2+ years, it doesn't disappoint
Same. I can’t think of a single complaint after years of use.

@@archetypex65 wait, people get PAID to say stuff like this? damn, where do I sign up?

It also dosen't track you
I believe everything digital is under survallince .
For real
Has to be, we don't have direct connection to the servers, rather routed to them, thus leaving areas to be servailled.

I've been using & promoting DuckDuckGo. As soon as this video mentions both Dorsey & Snowden's endorsement, it gives me a seed of doubt now.. Same thing for Signal. It's known as the most safe app, but it is endorsed by the same guys, and Signal is also owned by an ex-CIA....Makes you wonder, huh....
@@projectdorcas2458 u got it.
I try to do all my searches on DuckDuckGo now, fed up of google making money out of my data!
Has anyone simply talked about something using their mouth and then Google recommended similar ads soon after ??
Yeah they have a voice command running in the background to pick up certain words such as "Cosmetics", "Cars" and other key words and gives ads based on what u say the most
Yes. I noticed it several times. We had talked about getting a new refrigerator but never searched it on my phone or computer then it started showing up on the ads in my Google searches and Chrome browser. Then the same thing happened with a washer and dryer and a cruise. After searching for what was going on I learned what Google does. Luckily found DuckDuckGo at that time. I deleted Chrome from my computer and disabled Chrome and Google Assistant from my phone. (they can't be removed completely from an android phone without rooting) I now use Firefox for my browser on the computer with the DDG extensions and DDG has a browser for mobile phones. Hopefully, more and more people will switch to DDG but it will likely be like Microsoft Windows and Linux. My girlfriend said something about getting an Alexa and I promptly said "Hell NO!!"
@@meabob right same thing. I have scraped chrome from my computer and use Firefox. In fact, chrome has a subprocess called Software Reporter tool which crawls you program files directory to see what all you have installed. And it does that in the name of detecting any non compatible software on the computer. What a joke.
ypu, it was headboards for me. Me and the wife were considering getting a new one so we were just chatting about the possibility and then I went to my phone to start a search for headboards and every single advert was for headboards and I hadn't even typed anything in about headboards yet. I then went straight to my settings and disabled the mic for google use on everything.
@@proffessorX Damn. These tech giants are really sneaking into out personal lives too much, which we sadly sign up for in the terms and conditions.
I use DDG on my phone as a test run, I'm really happy with it. I'm dumping Google and Gmail because Google is too invasive and politically biased. Jack Dorsey of Twitter is a hypocrite for using DDG 🙄
DDG does much of the same stuff. Most of these are owned by the giants. We believe what they let us see.
@@jloren4647 DDG is good as of now. Just remember that either you die a hero or live long enough to become the villain.
@@jloren4647 really? Do you have any evidence that DDG stores your information and gears your searchea to what it thinks you buy? Do you have any evidence that DDG is under control by the left wing agenda (apple, facebook, twitter, google, amazon)??
@@labadaba5088 I'm not sure what that quote has to do with searching stuff on search engines. Nor have I ever heard of heros who live long lives becoming villains.
@@PolishBehemoth 1 search for something like dog treats or some common item out of the ordinary for you. Then go on amazon and you've got ads. Amazon, google etc publicly announce they share data. 2. I didn't say left. When i searched for photos of hunter biden, it was censored. Search for something heinous about men, then change the identifier to women or POC and your results will be substituted to be anti slander, pro woman etc. I make no commentary about position but thats not how uncensored results are. Of course all engines curate (as you want) but they didn't used to censor.
Uploading this to youtube is a serious flex
Nice ad btw
its been 2 months since I deleted facebook, whatsapp, and all google services from my desktop and phone. Loving duckduckgo so far . I actually feel private and anonymous now. its great...hoping for a real youtube alternative soon
This channel needs to get bigger! Good video. Keep up the uploads
Thanks Luca! We're working on it!
What? Nothing about Google's bias on searches?
Plenty of examples which makes this review seem a little soft on Google. It brings into question the claim Google is more accurate. Perhaps accurate wasn't the best word choice. relevant maybe? But again, with a Google bias.
The fact is, if they expose Google's bias on searches, you won't see this RUclips video in the first place.
I think DuckDuckGo has bias too.
It’s ironic that I had a google add before this video.. I love DuckDuckGo... left google and degoogled my phone.
BYE BYE google !!!
I've been a duck duck go fan for years. Privacy is important. And here we are on Google/RUclips....
I wouldn't be on youtube if I could find an alternative with a similar amount of content. There is so much content on here that unfortunately can't be found anywhere else, at least, not yet

Great content man, I'm sure your sub count will soon explode. Keep it going.
Thanks for the support!
We’ll keep trying our best :)
I stopped using Google over a year ago, and searching the internet using DDG is a lot less cluttered. You get a more focussed result in my mind.. but I get that it’s not for everyone.. unfortunately the term “just google it” has now become part of our search language.
Yeah, like that infantile non-word "tweet".
People switching to duckduckgo for privacy while I just switched for consistent dark mode :P
2021: Just Google it
2031: Just DuckDuckGo it
I used DuckDuckGo before this video, and cleared my Google History. Google doesn't track me anymore, so I use DuckDuckGo on Google Chrome.
*TAKE BACK YOUR PRIVACY!*
I use Duckduckgo. I just wanted people to know that when google started they had the opinion to not me evil. So, the current opinion of duckduckgo may change. Infact they "could" in theory be logging everything and people who use it just do not know it. That being said at the moment I would say I believe them. But, I do not use for privacy that much. More as an opposition to google. I figure as long as I can use something else that does exactly the same thing there is no reason for me to use google seems how they no longer care about being evil. Which as far as I can tell duckduckgo literally achieves the exact same means as google.
#2/ There is one thing I found out during looking for all alternative products. 1. All search engine is probably using Google's product, including DuckDuckGo, because the search results are all the same,100% here. 2. Most of browsers are using Chromium, the open source of Chrome, including MS Edge. So I see a 100% monopoly here in searching. This is horrible! The government needs to do something.
It seems to have improved in leaps and bounds lately. Excellent!
I like that Google customizes my search results, it helps when I'm searching with programming terms and they dont get mixed up with their mathematical meanings.
Well i dont like that
it's always the basement where it starts.
Yes, but what those 2 rooms are attached to can vary dramatically... Which is why they always start there: they help hide the wealth
This channel will blow up for sure. Good work!
Thanks for your support :)
I have been Duck Duck Go for six months, I find it is as good as google and has a better name lol! Go Duck Duck Go.
DDG + Brave Browser.
If you still using Chrome, Google is tracking you. Fire Fox is a bit better but still allows other internet trackers and adware to follow you. Brave Browser removes all those annoying trackers. Paired with DDG as default search, it’s the best privacy combo.
Unfortunately FIrefox is from Mozilla, and they are blatant supporters of Black Lives Matter = Antifa.
@@ZilogBob Forgot you PROZAC Bob? You are nuts.
@@mehdinaghavi685 Do some research, troll.
Compared to other competitors, Duck's search results are really good. I think it's a good tradeoff for privacy and breaking Google's monopoly.
One of Terraria's creators, Andrew turned his back on google after they showed him that privacy and safety isn't a concern for them
The irony of my last youtube interaction is Google tracking me as I download duckduckgo on Google Play 🤣🤣
I've been proudly using Duckduckgo as my main search engine for almost a year now, and it is awesome!!
hard to believe that RUclips did not ban this video...
Letting someone steal your personal info (some call it sharing) is one thing. Having them censor content and stifle freedom of speech is quite another. Go Ducks!
Those who surrender privacy for convenience deserve neither.
DDG is based in Pennsylvania, which I found unusual and welcome.
Tired of these tech companies stuck in their thought bubbles, all rotating the same employees who worked at the other place last year because they're headquartered right next to each other. Nothing changes and they serve themselves and don't care about people who live in the rest of the country and world who don't agree with their politics.
The catch, the don’t voice their opinions first in all queries.
Google:The popular kid
Bing:The quiet kid
RUclips:The snitch
Duckduckgo:The underrated kid
I like DuckDuckGo, works well for my searches and makes me feel more comfortable about my privacy. Thanks for this video.
I've been using DuckDuckGo for years and I love it. I hate Google with a vengeance because of it's constant surveillance and overboard advertising. DuckDuckGo gives me the peace and the freedom that I love.

3. If you disregard 1 and 2 then you will be the dinner
I’m actually using DuckDuckGo. It works for me.
Why to stay with Google same thing they're both censoring you
The real problem with google is a side effect of the smart search algorithms called "the filter bubble effect". This occurs as a user searches for anything on google, youtube ore any of google's net properties. The search requirements gets analysed and the result are applied the the user profile which is then used to bias future searches prioritizing a narrower range of results in the process. Eventually this filter bubble shrinks to the point that attempts to search for topics outside the bubble yeild useless results.
as early as 2014, foreign state actors have learned to tak advantge of filter bubbles to manipulate the google users en mass, often for political reasons, often to promote violences and and most effectively to authoritarian and even fascist ideologies.
Just typed "inception" and was given results of "IMDb" and "Rotton Tomatoes". Doesn't mean I like Google, but at least this bit is an unfair criticism.
Duck Duck Go always delivers....ALWAYS! Love that search, like the old days! so happy!
Happy DDG user since 2011, here.
Yup
another thing that sets duckduckgo apart is that you get CONSISTENT results.
if you look something up, and you tell someone else to look up the exact same words, they will get the exact same results.
Some people: *Use Google
Others: *Uses DuckDuckGo for privacy

I've had it for close to a year now. No complaints.
I just started using Duck Duck Go 💖😁
How has it been so far?... Where ca I get it?
Rock on Duck! Much to be required of you in the future as Google will most certainly go down.
I can’t put a comment here..because you tube is owned by Google
But you did
I switched to Duckduckgo because the big G also filters the results presented to you based on their world view at the time, (which is constantly changing), rather than the most relevant items.
in near future :
"u can duck the info"
Nah unfortunately google will probably always remain superior
Performance difference alone makes this a worthy browser when. Chrome lags constantly even on new hardware phone I can only imagine what chrome is up to in the background that makes it so slow
I wanted to post comment about my expirience with duck duck go here but youtube didnt alow me to! Why is that???
I switched to duckduckgo yesterday...and here youtube recommending me this video... coincidence?
Eliminating google and completely eliminated Facebook. they are garbage
Not sure if you even listened.
DuckDuckGo is actually very accurate. Anytime I'm not happy and I try Google, Google results suck just as well. Highly recommended. Time to cut the cord on Google (and that includes youtube).
I appreciate that you did my request! A great video too, as expected! :)
I'd also like mention Google's political baias- it likes to move conservative/Republican,etc search results to lower pages (and in some cases- censor them completely), and push the liberal/Democrat based search results towards the front, if the search is Political related. This leads to those who want fair results, to use Duckduckgo. Part of the reason this can be important, is that the Democrat party tends to side with China when it comes to wanting to make them look good, thus they'd actively want to be against any statements that might be negative about China (though after the pandemic, this has shifted some)- thus knowing that Google likes to have politically biased search results, means that I turn to Duckduckgo when researching things like Tencent or the laws that allow private info to be given to the CCP. Because while yes, Google's results won't be entirely censored, they will be politically biased enough to feel like a form of censorship of the natural search results.
Very fair point made- especially after the week we’ve had 😂
I guess to describe Google as being pro/anti any particular party would be divisive for some, so we’re avoiding mentioning politics wherever possible.
Thanks for the feedback Chris and we hope you stick around for more videos :)
@@HowItHappened understandable. This youtube doesn't want to get political. Can't blame you lol
I take a first choice second choice - DuckDuckGo is my primary but if I don’t find what I need quickly I fall back to google.
