Try using "!s", which sends you to Startpage, a search engine with Google search results but which promises privacy.

(I don't know much more about Startpage, and in many discussions about DDG I ask if anyone knows more, but no luck so far.)

My only encounter with Startpage was when it mysteriously showed up on my parents' computer as a self-resetting default and I had to clean it off for them. If Startpage is legit, they need to maintain much better control of their affiliate campaign to prevent the use of malware to drive affiliate revenue.
