What is DuckDuckGo
DuckDuckGo is a web search engine just like Google. That is, such a website where you can search through the internet because of your need. There are many such search engines in the market. Among them Google, Bing, Yahoo, Yandex are quite popular.
Most people in India use Google search engine. Bing is used more in the US and Europe along with Google. Yandex search engine is used in Russia. Due to the ban on Google in China, Chinese people use their own Baidu search engine.
Like all these search engines, DuckDuckGo is also a search engine. Although it is not as popular as Google, still millions of people are using DuckDuckGo in western countries. Privacy is the reason for its increasing popularity in Western countries. For this special reason, a lot of Internet users are now using DuckDuckGo in India. Before knowing more about DuckDuckGo, we get to know its history.
History of DuckDuckGo
DuckDuckGo was founded by Gabriel Winberg on 25 September 2008. That is, this search engine was established almost a decade ago. DuckDuckGo was named after the children's cartoon TV show DuckDuckGoose. Till 2011, DuckDuckGo was not getting any funding. Gabriel Winberg continued the website with his own money which was a difficult task. Later in October 2011, an American company named Union Square Venture showed interest in DuckDuckGo and invested in it.
This investment by the Union Company proved to be a lifeline for DuckDuckGo. After receiving the investment, Gabriel started expanding DuckDuckGo. Gabriel's hard work brought DuckDuckGo to success. In the year 2012, 1.5 million people started searching on DuckDuckGo daily. The company made a significant profit of 1,15000 USD. After this, customers of DuckDuckGo continued to grow.
On 18 September 2014, the Apple company named DuckDuckGo as an optional search engine in its browser Safari. On November 10 this year, Mozilla placed DuckDuckGo as an optional search engine in its browser Firefox. On 30 May 2016, Tor Company announced DuckDuckGo as the default browser in its Tor browser.
The popularity of DuckDuckGo increased day by day. People began to consider DuckDuckGo more secure than Google. For this reason, in today's date, more than 3 crore people search on Dakkago. This is much less compared to Google. But this number is increasing day by day.
Why are people preferring DuckDuckGo over Google?
It is very difficult to use internet without search engine. A search engine is a tool that cuts across all kinds of information on the Internet and sets it in a pattern. Later, this search engine retrieves information according to the need of the user.
The search engine is not less than a boon for Internet users. But many times, these search engines knowingly inadvertently harm their user. Search engines collect personal data of their users and use it for their own benefit. This hurts the privacy of the user.
For example, whenever we search for something on Google search engine or search for a product. Then Google saves the information about our product on its server. This makes Google easy to advertise. Also, Google has our personal information.
Google's algorithm works in such a way that it has all our possible information. Like our name, address, mobile number, our occupation, what we eat, what language we speak, what clothes we wear, Google knows all these things. This is why our privacy is hurt. That is why people of western countries have a feeling of hatred towards Google and are liking Google's DuckDuckGo.
What is the difference between DuckDuckGo and Google?
The primary reason behind the increasing popularity of DuckDuckGo is its privacy feature. If you use Google, then Google has your information. That is, Google is tracking you every moment. Google knows what your name is, what work you do, where you live, what you are looking for on the internet, what you are searching or what you are buying. Google keeps every information of its customer. With the help of which he could show his admiration. Using Google cheats your privacy. If you don't mind it then it's a different thing.
Many people are angry due to this arbitrariness of Google. For many people, their privacy is very important. They do not want anyone to monitor them every time. That's why not many people in Europe and America use Google. Where on one side Google destroys your privacy, DuckDuckGo maintains your privacy on the contrary. DuckDuckGo does not collect any of your private and personal information.
DuckDuckGo asks you for your location. No, your IP address is tracked. No, monitors your search history. That is, DuckDuckGo gives complete privacy to its customers. On DuckDuckGo, you can search everything you like without seeing anyone. There is no one here to track you and your web search. Due to this specialty, many people are using DuckDuckGo.
