Clothes commercials not even a million miles suitable to our ages or interests? Food’s we all hate. I just discussed with my daughters that we are bombarded with ad’s lately from pharmaceuticals that are for conditions that don’t even apply to our Race, or any conditions, or any conditions that could even remotely be genetic? A family member in her 20’s keeps getting AARP memberships sent. My household individuals have never, every seen or received and ad that had anything to do with any interest. Weinberg also claimed to be “working tirelessly” to get this policy changed to improve user privacy.Ĭan Someone be honest about “Trackers” and “Updates?” Aren’t updates, really data harvesters? and why all of a sudden is it a phenomenon? Forced updates on Windows? Why data so important they have to force steal it? No way are trackers being used for advertising, that’s pretty obvious. He clarified on Twitter how this was intentional and due to a “search syndication agreement” with Microsoft.

In response to Edwards’ thread, DuckDuckGo’s CEO Gabriel Weinberg explained the policy. You can see the full thread from Zach Edwards explaining the situation in more detail here. It seems this basic model/partnership is bleeding over into the realm of browsers where trackers can be used for targeted advertisements. In that guide, I noted how DuckDuckGo partners with Bing to deliver search results and advertising revenue. We have previously discussed DuckDuckGo at length in our guide on private search engines. You can capture data within the DuckDuckGo so-called private browser on a website like Facebook's and you'll see that DDG does NOT stop data flows to Microsoft's Linkedin domains or their Bing advertising domains.
