I also recommend installing them and running the extra mile by changing your default search engine to DuckDuckGo (HTML SSL) without javascript (use NoScript). They temporarily track you and HTML one gives you direct links as opposed to redirects.
You can even modify you Firefox by changing values in about:config
geo.enabled ---> false
keyword.URL ---> Your Search engine query url
browser.urlbar.trimURLs ---> false
noscript.ABE.wanipCheckURL ---> 0
network.http.sendReferheader ---> 0
network.http.sendSecureXSiteReferrer ---> false
^these ones break some site functionality that rely on it. It's rare at least.
