1 Block ads and hidden trackers automatically
The main purpose of DuckDuckGo is to stop you being tracked online, so it’s no surprise that its new browser blocks the trackers embedded in websites. However, it goes far beyond the tracking protection offered by Chrome and other browsers by making you as anonymous as possible from the outset.
Most browsers now let you configure their privacy settings to improve their blocking of third-party cookies, fingerprinting, invasive scripts, and other elements that track you, but these can prove confusing and ineffective.
In contrast, DuckDuckGo blocks all trackers automatically with no settings to tweak or different ‘modes’ to apply. The only privacy option you can turn on or off is for Global Privacy Control (GPC)—a new system that asks participating websites not to sell or share your data with other companies.
