Alas, the censoring disease has infected DuckDuck Go. I liked this search engine for the very fact that they WEREN'T shadow banning, censoring, or down ranking information based on mercurial criteria such as "disinformation." I'm old enough. I can find out news for myself.
And so I depart. My next port-of-call will probably be Brave. But alternative browser/search engines are available:
Brave https://brave.com/, Startpage https://www.startpage.com/, GIBIRU https://tinyurl.com/ymu4hrwb, Swisscows https://swisscows.com/?culture=en, Bitclave https://www.bitclave.com/, Qwant https://www.qwant.com/, Descrete Search https://www.discretesearch.com/.
For a comprehensive list, try this master site.

I can't recall how long that Duck Duck Go has been around. I THINK about 20 years, not too long after 9/11 if I'm not mistaken. There was a lot of conspiracy talk around that time. Whenever it was, I do remember that site making claims about being free of the censorship that afflicted well-known sites like Google or Yahoo.
What in the name of Sherlock Poirot is going on??!? 🤷♀️ (Purposeful use of both fictional detectives. It would take the skills of both men to figure out all this foolishness).
I think they showed up around 2008.
Maybe pressure from the the other big techs
or the government.
That timeline works.
I started trying to figure something out, and I just figured, "You wanna go in circles, girl, just get on a Merry Go Round. All the same nausea without the connected stupidity."
