Apple does make a big deal about having sensible and secure defaults. This is the issue
I’d prefer something more secure but all of them just suck. I use DDG but more than half the time I end up needing to use !g to get the google results because DDG just isn’t that good.
DDG is also a for profit venture and uses privacy more as a marketing ploy. They’ve been caught allowing Microsoft trackers.
That was their browser though and you shouldn't use a Chromium based browser anyway if you value privacy (and the future of the web for that matter).
Yeah, you have to be wary of whatever online service you use. I don't really trust DDG but I trust the alternatives less.
