Google has been the default search engine on Brave, but beginning today DuckDuckGo is the suggested option for private tabs.īrave, which launched in January 2016, says it currently has close to a million monthly active users. Brave’s Android and iOS apps will include the DuckDuckGo feature in the first quarter of 2018. The new option is available beginning today on Brave’s 0.19.x desktop browser release. “Within private browsing mode, we find that many people expect their searches to not be tracked, and this new integration with Brave enables them to get the privacy they expect and deserve in that mode.” “We take that to mean that they were being tailored based on their IP address or other fingerprinting techniques using search history from before that session,” DuckDuckGo CEO Gabriel Weinberg explained. DuckDuckGo has conducted studies that revealed Google search results were still being tailored to specific users even when those users were in incognito mode.
