Well, that's fine if you just want another search engine, but DDG seems to be trying to be ethical in it's dealings, so I figured they might want to consider how they impact upon others.
If they start tracking me to achieve "feature parity", that's sort of one less feature I can do without!
They are only following on the industry standard for this feature. Google, Bing, Yahoo all do this already. DDG adding this feature (but offering to let people correct the entries and open-sourcing the answers) is just achieving feature parity, not diving into new territory.
