Many know us for private search — but we're so much more. Our app is the #1 downloaded browser on Android (US) and #2 on iOS, w/over 100 million installs!

DuckDuckGo is the easy button for privacy — multiple protections (search, tracker blocking, encryption, etc), one download.

I'm back from a week at my mom's house and now I'm getting ads for her toothpaste brand, the brand I've been putting in my mouth for a week. We never talked about this brand or googled it or anything like that.

As a privacy tech worker, let me explain why this is happening. 🧵

Have any companies out there successfully moved to a Bayesian A/B framework? If so, how’d it go and what would you change if you had to do it again?

[DuckDuckGo @DuckDuckGo]

Google embedded a new tracking method called FLoC in Chrome & is turning it on by default.

Consequently, we've enhanced the tracker blocking in our Chrome extension to block FLoC (update pending store approval).
