Zum #diday an Ostern mal anders suchen:
Seit der Nacht zu Karfreitag kann ich nun in meinem #duckai Abo auch PDF-Dateien hochladen, bisher konnte man nur Bilddateien laden. Perfekt!

Perso, je suis degooglisé depuis 7 ans et m'en porte très bien. À grand coup de #duckduckgo, de #eOS, #linux, #protonmail et #protondrive, je me suis affranchi de mes comptes Google. Me reste juste Gmaps qui n'est égalé par aucun logiciel FOSS, et YouTube auquel j'accède par Newpipe pour suivre les créateurs que j'apprécie, sans tracking ni algorithme.
A part le passage à Linux qui demande quelques efforts, aucun de ces changements ne demande de sacrifices sur leur usabilité.
qwant news | Google Rival DuckDuckGo Roasts Jeff Bezos' Tall Beverly Hills Fence And Mark Zuckerberg's Multi-Million D
DuckDuckGo lampooned Amazon founder Jeff Bezos on Wednesday, pointing out the towering fence surrounding his $175 million Beverly Hills estate. The company’s tweet called the fence “the tallest residential fence in the area” and joked that it resembled a hedge fund, noting that Bezos must pay a $1,000 monthly fine for exceeding local height restrictions.
The next day the privacy‑focused search engine turned its attention to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, highlighting his purchase of more than 11 homes in Palo Alto’s Crescent Park neighborhood for over $100 million. DuckDuckGo sarcastically dubbed the acquisitions “a privacy setting,” noting that Zuckerberg paid double or triple market value and that the influx of security cameras and private guards has altered the once‑quiet, tree‑lined community.
Both tweets underscored the irony that the two tech moguls, whose companies profit from massive data collection, are spending fortunes on personal privacy measures. Benzinga reached out to Amazon and Meta for comment, but neither responded at the time of publication.
