DuckDuckGo makes its 'no-AI' search engine easier to access as its traffic booms | TechCrunch

Alternative search engine DuckDuckGo launches 'no AI' web extensions for Chrome and Firefox users.

without stupid adblockblock https://archive.is/whZuI

also i wouldn't install their extension just for that, you can edit your default search engine to anu address you want in the settings

browser extensions are a huge privacy risk and i wouldn't trust ddg with my data because of their Microsoft deal, not to block their trackers (they reverted that part after the backlash) in the ddg browser and to only show msn under their news tab in regular ddg
