     @arstechnica “DuckDuckGo wasn't as private as believed.” It’s still more private than Google though?

     @arstechnica "duckduckgo isn't as private as they say they are," says man who literally worked at google. i don't see any reason not to take this man's word at face value! surely he has completely valid and non biased reasons to say what he said.

     @arstechnica it doesn't say much about execs... It does suggest though that DDG list out big time as they could not pay to make their search engine the default choice...
