iPad "Duck Duck Go", the browser that respects user privacy


Google, Yahoo and Bing are the engines that account for most of the searches contained in the global network. We're not talking about how well (or poorly) they work, if not how, and what you can offer a new form as Duck Duck Go to the big three.

Although its popularity is still not great, is gaining every day. There is a search faster, more complete, more beautiful or more options, but has a feature that makes it unique, and incidentally, the most recommended of all: respect the privacy of its users.

Google, Bing and Yahoo, have a database of searches carried out in their browsers. This is partly understandable, as you try to weigh the importance of certain content or pages of high quality versus poor sites. But he has a weakness, and is the system of "tracking" or tracking user activities.

is common for the user with an account from Google, Microsoft or Yahoo, operating in their respective browsers. This information is linked to a user name. That is, each search is linked to the appropriate account, always knowing what to look for or visited pages.

But it is not necessary have an account to be tracked and monitored. Just use the search engine produces the same effect. By using IP and other protocololos, information is collected from all that the user on the network.

This is dangerous for two reasons:

1. Gives corporations enormous power because they have a database of tastes and interests of many users.

2. We are exposed to dangers such as censorship or dentenciones by governments allied with certain lobbyists.

Internet use should be linked to individual responsibility of each one, knowing what's safe and what not, and learn about alternatives that are offered for navigation, as is our right, and as anonymously as possible. Duck Duck Go

not track their users' searches. Just giving you the results you ask is a link between the user and the final page, a road that takes you to your destination, not a toll.

Moreover, Duck Duck Go also has other cool stuff. We can set your browser to your liking by changing the region in which searches are conducted, change the icons displayed, colors, window sizes and even features related to privacy and exclusive sailing as https secure sites or even the appearance ads on the searches.

can not do anything without alternatives but having no reason why we should not use them.

Duck Duck Go is the key.
