• Duck Duck Go Blog
  • All searches are private, even from DuckDuckGo.
  • Money is made from keywords typed, without knowing search history or additional data
  • Search advertisers buy ads for certain keywords - pay per click model
  • “Using the Internet doesn’t have to feel like you’re being watched, listened to, and monitored.”
  • Google now deploys hidden trackers on 76% of websites across the web to monitor your behavior and Facebook has hidden trackers on about 25% of websites
    • These trackers can be as simple as their logo served off their own website
    • They can track: interests, purchases, search and browsing history
  • “It is a choice to squeeze every last ounce of profit at the expense of privacy, democracy and society.”
  • Another revenue stream that doesnt violate privacy: non-tracking affiliate partnerships with Amazon and eBay.
    • It is important that they run their own affiliate programs, and dont use partners
  • duckduckgo - interest based advertising vs. others - hyper-targetted based on cached customer data
