    the first two are ADs. says right next to them.

    wu’cha browsin’ nekkid for? get an ad blocker. that should be the very first thing that goes in your browser, then fix the default settings that nobody wants enabled. then go get your libreoffice and other stuff.

    i like that someone maintains ublockorigin.com as a landing page for ubo with links to the appropriate addon site for your browser. makes it a little easier to get to on a new pc.

      Eh… Give DDG the ad revenue?

      They aren’t user tracking ads, they’re just contextual to the search, easily ignorable. I like whitelisting upstanding sites like that.

        Ehh… No thank you. I want to have a neutral search result.

        If you ignore the ads and are never clicking on them, DDG most likely doesn’t get any revenue anyways.

        with AdBlock the ad still loads, it’s only hidden for you. Also you probably have to click one IT to create revenue for DDG
