The federal government argues Google has smothered competition by paying companies such as Apple and Verizon to lock in its search engine as the default.
I’ve just tried to search for ‘tank man’ and also ‘tiananmen square’ with DuckDuckGo’s image search, and both of them returned the picture we all know, that dictator Winnie the Poop doesn’t wanna see…
But you didn’t say you expect them to show you the foto. You said you wanted them to issue a statement or something. So the issue was not lack of functionality but not taking a stance. Now that I pointed out how silly it is you’re changing it to “it’s a poor service”. Nice…
Yes, I expected a statement in the form of “Apologies, we didn’t mean to censor this photograph, here’s how we’re going to prevent this in the future”. Microsoft explained the problem at the very least (blaming it on “human error” of course).
If DDG can’t be bothered to put out a statement, I don’t trust their morals.

Do you use DDG China™ or something? This all comes up when I search for it, no censorship

Seriously? It’s a search tool. Does absolutely every piece of software you use have to be 100% aligned to your world view? This is getting weird.
