The mainstream press really doesn’t like underdogs. Crazy right-wingers have been ditching YouTube for Rumble and taking over Substack. Now we’re learning that conspiracy theorists and “conservative influencers” are ditching Google as their default search engine and switching to DuckDuckGo.
DuckDuckGo has been embraced by conservative influencers and conspiracy theorists who question Covid and push discredited treatments. https://t.co/Ki0m628HNA

if you use duckduckgo, you're a conspiracy theorist now

Nice to see the media doing Google’s bidding for them. Nice try.

It's been embraced by anyone who gave up on Google after James Damore was fired. Same with Brave browser.

A search engine should be a search engine. Period.

Or people sometimes just want a search engine that works like Google used to and spits out matches to your search string.

Google doesn't respect your privacy, that's why I switched to DuckDuckGo.

God forbid you want privacy and less ads…..

Oh look the NYT posting an article to stifle competition with Google. Weird. Almost like they’re working towards a collective goal.

Look how the left simply cannot allow anything to gain traction outside of the system they control. Has to be so off-putting to normies who don't yet understand why that is.

You really are all one big regime aren't you?

It’s been embraced for being an unbiased and uncompromised search engine.

This is a terrible article full of #misinformation
— KC Frew (@KnoxvilleKC) February 23, 2022
Incredible. Even with an obviously garbage take, this clickbait article still has progressives stanning for Google. Lmao

Good God. Try to maintain some semblance of rationality, NYT. You guys look and sound like a petty, bitter ex on a regular basis. Embarrassing.

You literally know nothing about this topic.

Anyone not wanting curated answers to questions uses anything but Google. it’s not just conspiracy theorists.

Conspiracy theorists = People that think for themselves
— Hunter (@TreadOnDeezNuts) February 23, 2022
It's a search engine, you donkeys.
I also hear that some conservative influencers embrace drinking water. Should the rest of us refrain from drinking it?

I am not a conspiracy theorist, but rather an IT Security professional with four decades' experience.
I wonder if it would be possible to bring a class action defamation lawsuit against @nytimes? You shameless propagandists must be stopped.

“Hey public! ‘Doing your own research’ means digging for conspiracy theories”
They are literally trying to coin “doing research” as conspiracy. Lmaooo the desperation is hilarious. pic.twitter.com/KqSu11in7c

CNN’s Don Lemon warned us about those “idiots who think they can do their own research” about COVID.
