NEW: our apps & extensions now protect against Google AMP tracking. When you load or share a Google AMP page anywhere from DuckDuckGo apps (iOS/Android/Mac) or extensions (Firefox/Chrome), the original publisher's webpage will be used in place of the Google AMP version.

AMP technology is bad for privacy because it enables Google to track users even more (which is already a ton).
And, Google uses AMP to further entrench its monopoly, forcing the technology on publishers by prioritizing AMP links in search and favoring Google ads on AMP pages.

Weren't you busy working on tailoring the search results to reflect the government narrative?

No, that's actually not true. There have been some recent false headlines about us going around, for example one from newspunch from this past weekend. Here is a recent clarification thread:

Hoping to clear up some misconceptions about our private search engine.
First, there is a completely made up headline going around this weekend. We are not "purging" any media outlets from results. Anyone can verify this by searching for an outlet and see it come up in results.

Just wondering, is the macOS Safari extension officially dead? No recent updates, and recently it’s been excluded from announcements like this.

No, it's not dead but it has a lot of limitations due to platform constraints. We ultimately suggest moving to DuckDuckGo for Mac which doesn't have those constraints.
