There is no "new era of search competition" until Google's monopoly in the search market is addressed.
While the innovation is exciting, until users get the opportunity to easily pick their default search engine it’s the same era all over again.

hi haters!
Proving all the skeptics wrong, we've been profitable since 2014 and today, our revenue exceeds $100 million/yr, without ever tracking our users.
We're using these resources to build new ways to give users even more privacy for free, hold on to your feathers:

Millions of people have made DuckDuckGo their default search engine because they've had enough of misleading statements like this.
If you're so sure people don’t want to use us, then why not just let people choose their search default in one-click?

We've been saying this for a long time, couldn't agree more. The most salient ills of the Internet could all be made better if we did one thing: give people the privacy online they deserve.
Here's the "Privacy First" pitch: whatever is going on with all of the problems of the internet, all of these problems are made worse by commercial surveillance.

This is 100% true. We’ve passed a key milestone, but there’s still a lot of history to be written and Google will do anything it can to get in the way of progress.
The impact of Google's guilty verdict will depend on the strength of the remedies/sentencing phase where Judge Mehta has broad discretion. Expect DOJ to argue G must be broken up, unable to play in AI, etc.

DuckDuckGo provides something extremely valuable that people want and Google won't provide: real privacy. But Google makes it unduly difficult to use DuckDuckGo by default. We're glad this issue is finally going to have its day in court.

Knowing your behavior online is Google's most valuable asset.
@JusticeATR
does a great job explaining how Google's search monopoly and combining user data from separate Google products into single user profiles played a major part in building this (other) monopoly in ad tech.
🚨NEW:
@JusticeATR
is holding
@Google
accountable for illegally monopolizing the market for online ads.
We applaud the DOJ for pushing a pro-competition agenda that actually enforces laws on the books and protects the general public from Big Tech.

This internal Google thread from US vs Google P2 has everything: profit over user privacy, dismissing regulators, blatant acknowledgment of antitrust issues and more. Hate it when the history is on!
just found some eye-popping stuff in google discovery under the examples of substantive chats (not deleted). you ready? it's between two key VPs (33+yrs collectively working at Google) and strikes at the intersection of privacy and antitrust as they began cookie deprecation. /1

100% of DuckDuckGo users know they use DuckDuckGo. Because they actually made a choice to use it.
My second favorite set of statistics from today courtesy Google’s Project Cinnamom: 54% of US iPhone users surveyed by Google didn’t realize that the default search engine in Safari is Google. In Japan, that number was 81%.
