Do these old browsers not support DuckDuckGo?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 20 minutes ago

DuckDuckGo forces TLS while google doesn’t, so you can use IE5 or an old Safari with Google, but not with DDG.

Do you think their owners know of duckduckgo?

How many users are using browsers that are old enough they don't even support JS? It's one thing to disable it for security/privacy (which the OP was talking about), because those users are probably more tech savy.
