  They apparently think it’s Bing

    It’s Bing powered, but that’s about the only relationship.

      You apparently think that being powered by something is insignificant?

        That’s not relevant. The issue is that DDG eats all the trackers so Microsoft has no idea who you are, if queries are related, if queries go to the same user, etc. etc.

        I can write an application with my API key and release it to whomever I want. The API access will all be tied to me, not the user.

        That’s what DDG does.
