I stopped trusting ddg when they said they were going to sensor Russian news. I assume google and other major search engines sensor political issues but I didn’t think ddg would.

The very nature of a search engine is to rank information. Everything a search engine does implies some information gets relatively down-sampled.

It was announced in a very political way. It came across as signaling that they were “doing there part.”
