DuckDuckGo
Reviews and Complaints

Since you are censoring like the other Big Tech businesses I will no longer be using your service. I will spread the word about your censoring to everyone I know so that those of us that believe in the Constitution and freedom of speech can look for an alternative. The only reason your numbers have grown over the last 2 years is because we were told that you don't censor like Google does. Now there is no difference between you and Google so I might as well go back to Google. Later

What gives you the right to censor content, that's why people have left google... I am dropping support of duckduckgo at this point. RIP...

I see you have decided to be a woke Democrat platform and censor information. Not much of a shock, more of a huge disappointment. I don't know why big companies higher woke CEO's to destroy their successful business.

In America we used to allow different views and opinions. By quietly censoring viewpoint you do not agree with, you are destroying the foundation which America was built on. On top of that, the things you censor are ONLY conservative views. Of course you know all this.

Oh well, your choice to destroy DuckDuckGo you absolutely insane [censored]s. I will do everything in my power to get as many more people to move off of DDG as I possibly can. Unfortunately, I probably got hundreds of friend to originally join DGG - as I thought it was free from globalist woke control. But, mark my words, I will not stop alerting everyone I can to the fact that you have joined the Globalists "Great Reset" in force and are an enemy to free speech.

Hello,

The ONLY reason I use your search engine is that it is supposedly unbiased. If it is your stance to manipulate what I see according to your idea of disinformation, Duck2Go will no longer be a browser I use. You pretty much trashed the one reason people use your product. Bye.

Why is RT unavailable on this browser ?

Since when do i need to be told what i can watch ?

Please have this story taken down.

This article was first written in 2014 and then updated in 2020. I discovered it when searching my name, Alistair Siddons, with your search engine.

I spoke to a journalist in 2020 but 'on background' only, meaning they should not name me.

The story not only names me but also contains several inaccuracies - for example, I am not and have never been a 'promoter.'

These inaccuracies are so key that the article is really little more than gossip. As I am not a public figure, there is no public interest reason for naming me anyway.

I am a vulnerable person in several ways and this story damages my privacy by associating me strongly with a particular place.

It is not dated and looks as if it happened recently. I ask for it to be taken down the grounds that it invades my privacy, needlessly names me when I asked not to be named, is innacurate and should not stand as a matter of record.

I've had DuckDuckGo for years, and I've been very happy with you blocking ads on my computer.

Once again, Google has invaded my internet space with their ad for TotalAdblock. Right now, the only ad I want blocked is theirs!

It's on every page I look at, every day.

You've blocked their ad before. This is the 4th?... 5th?... 6th?... time they have invaded my internet space.

I think Google believes they own the internet, and they have the right to do whatever they want to.

They do not have the right to disrespect my internet privacy.

Please help.

I was searching for a therapist for my child. Then I saw this disturbing result. Please remove immediately. It says "Thai teen masturbate in public toilet". This is terrible and should be removed immediately. This was placed in the wrong search as well. It is illegal content and should be reported to the authorities. I attached the search result from February 24, 2022.

HI I AM WRITING AGAIN ONLY TO SAY PLEASE REMOVE THE information of my company from your website it is in to much detailL I am currentl having a great deal of security problems NAME IS CHARDEES GALLERY INC, IN TOLEDO, OHIO AND LAS VEGAS, NV, I would appreciate it greatly I am the owner TAMARA WOODS, thank you very much

A screen popped up saying I was the billion hit on duck duck. I switched from google to duck duck recently. Then I was told I could win $1000 on Amazon when drilling down I was asked for a credit card.

This is a total scam and I’m surprised. Perhaps I should go back to google?

I woke up to use my duckduckgo app it was completely gone after an update. All of my important bookmarks were gone! I run a business!

My duckduckgo tracker was going I waited months on the waiting list for this.

My email protection was disabled. I waited months for this as well.

I was able to reset the email protection. But what of my tracker and my bookmarks! I need them back now!🤬

Below is an error message that I get far too often when using their search engine. It is self explanatory. Duck duck go fmdo not respond to my complaints.

I am trying to understand the reason you boast about how good you- I bought it! And, even told everyone I know to use your site. However, when I go to investigate a subject, I have to go through at least 3 to 5 ad sites to get to a site that I may find helpful in my search. Very Annoying.

Also, I so disappointed to see 5 complaints resolved out of 141. ? Really? Wow! I thought you guys were better than that.

And, you should also let people know that if you share a complaint, you must give out your name and email before it can be sent. Shameful.

Now, much more disappointed.

AGAIN! Google's TotalAdBlock is invading my internet. Every page.

GOOGLE. Apparently they now own the internet! Google Inc. was officially launched in 1998 by Larry Page and Sergey Brin to market Google Search, which has become the most used web-based search engine

You have blocked them before. Why Does it keep happening over and over and over?

You're spending a ton of money on TV ads. How about taking care of your customers?

I've had you as my ad blocker for years.

HELP!

I have been recommending DuckDuck go like 20x a day to people who are on google and getting CENSORED information for the last 2 years. Recently I noticed you are starting to put on garbage information like google. Please STOP. DuckDuckGo is the only place people with brains have left to go to do "searches."

I have a a video coming up under my name Ian Ashford in the video search which is undesirable by its association and inaccurate.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3IdsIJjialI

There is also and article on the website of the business below matching this.

This has nothing whatsoever to do with the name Ian Ashford.

Can you remove this from this search.

Again! Google's ad for its Total Ad block is invading my internet pages on Firefox.
Duckduckgo, my ad blocker, has been great for years but no more!
Google has put their "ad" for Total Adblock on every page!
You blocked them but now they're back again. Why? What's going on?
Are you capable of blocking their ad or not?
What are you going to do?
Please help me get rid of this invasive and persistent ad from Google's Total Adblock.
Unfortunately, I cannot post a photo since I do not possess a cell phone due to EMF hypersensitivity.
Thank you

In DDG the "Visited Title Color" setting no longer works. Please advise. Thanks.
