"This is directly in line with the single purpose of our extension of protecting your privacy holistically as you use your browser. There are various browsers that are free to download, and we recommend some in our guide to Google alternatives," DuckDuckGo pointed out, adding that "on iOS or Android we suggest you use our own mobile browser, which offers best-in-class privacy protection by default when searching and browsing".ĭuckDuckGo added that in response to Google automatically turning on FLoC, they have enhanced tracker blocking on their own Chrome extension to block all FLoC interactions on websites. "Don't use Google Chrome! Right now FLoC is only in Google Chrome, and no other browser vendor has expressed an intention or even interest to implement it. The privacy-focused web browser has asked people to block FLoC's tracking to protect their privacy. If you're reading this in Chrome while logged in to a Google account, yes, that likely means you too, and if not now, then eventually," they added.
"After a short trial period, Google decided not to make this new tracking method a user choice and instead started automatically including millions in the scheme. The browser is also said to outperform Google's offering in terms of graphical performance."It groups you based on your interests and demographics, derived from your browsing history, to enable creepy advertising and other content targeting without third-party cookies," DuckDuckGo said in a statement. During the beta, the protection will be expanded to other sites, according to the business.ĭuckDuckGo claims to consume 60 per cent fewer data than Chrome since it blocks trackers. The new move will bring the same experience on computers.ĭuckDuckGo for Mac, unlike any other Web browser, includes cookie pop-up protection, which helps to block intrusive cookie tracking pop-ups from 50 per cent of websites at the time. Since its release, it is said to have been downloaded over 150 million times. DuckDuckGo is also the default search engine.ĭuckDuckGo made its debut in the world of web browsers in 2018, when it released its first mobile browser. The new browser, which is presently in beta testing for macOS, is said to have built-in privacy protections such as cookie pop-up protection and a feature called Smarter Encryption that assists users in navigating to websites that are encrypted (HTTPS).
The privacy-focused Internet search engine DuckDuckGo has launched a desktop browser to compete with Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge.
