Anyone who criticizes the company on Twitter gets the same canned response from Weinberg:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p><em>\u201cHi, FYI \u2014 this isn\u2019t about our search engine, and we actually restrict Microsoft scripts in our browsers, including blocking their 3rd party cookies. If you want full context, I left a detailed explanation on reddit.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Weinberg clarifies in the Reddit thread he links that DuckDuckGo does not guarantee anonymity when browsing outside of its search engine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He also claims that &#8220;nothing can guarantee 100 percent security,&#8221; and that DuckDuckGo is &#8220;the best thing out there for mainstream users.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">In Summary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>What are the main takeaways from all of this?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other words, the company that claims it will never track you is tracking you at times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When using DuckDuckGo outside of its search engine, we&#8217;ve discovered that complete anonymity isn&#8217;t guaranteed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Microsoft trackers must be allowed in DuckDuckGo&#8217;s web browser by contract.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When using DuckDuckGo.com to conduct searches, the company continues to promise protection from data trackers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It remains to be seen whether this has a long-term impact on DuckDuckGo&#8217;s reputation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To DuckDuckGo&#8217;s credit, it&#8217;s unusual to see a CEO jump on a problem so quickly and publicly address public concerns.
