Is DuckDuckGo SAFE? 🔥 My full DuckDuckGo privacy review

As part of a year-in-review post, DuckDuckGo said it is maintaining the design philosophy of its popular mobile app by keeping things simple and ensuring a high level of privacy protection. The company reiterated that the new browser should not be viewed as a special browser, but as an everyday app that actively protects you.

So far, there are few details about the new browser’s capabilities, other than that it’s a direct port of the mobile app. As with everything DuckDuckGo does, the new app offers robust privacy protections for search, web browsing, email, and more.

To keep the upcoming app clutter-free, the company is building its software around Google Chromium, a popular codebase used in many browsers. This allowed DuckDuckGo to remove unnecessary aspects to ensure a clean user interface and fast performance.
