DuckDuckGo Browser and Microsoft

Hi All

Well there goes a good browser, which obviously means that everyone has a price. I won't be using this browser again unfortunately.

"Don't let perfect become the enemy of good" [ref dead-dude].

I get that you now feel that DDG has lowered it's pedestal, but the real question to be asking yourself is if this new, lower pedestal remains higher than its competitors.

This is a case where one picks the "least evil" and hopefully is able to tune-it to match their individual risk appetite.

@denbesten If we let our standards down, we allow other things to slip by us. Then they bite is in the proverbial further down the track. Rather like the Chinese sneaking into the Pacific Islands, offerings lots of resources, which they cannot refuse - albeit to keep the Church Ministers in the lifestyle they require. A very slippery slope indeed.
