== History ==&lt;br /&gt;
DuckDuckGo was founded in 2008 as a privacy-focused competitor to popular search engines such as Google Search. For a time it maintained a reputation helping to circumvent censorship, but following the [[2022 Russo-Ukranian conflict|2022 Russo-Ukraine conflict]], DuckDuckGo violated its public posture of neutrality and began censoring Russian news outlets.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{News citation|journalist=Tom Parker|date=2022-03-11|title=DuckDuckGo Announces Mass Censorship of &#039;Russian Disinformation&#039;|url=https://www.eutimes.net/2022/03/duckduckgo-announces-mass-censorship-of-russian-disinformation/}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In response, Brave Search and Presearch announced that they will refuse to censor search results.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{News citation|journalist=Tom Parker|title=Brave Search and Presearch say they don’t censor search results|url=https://reclaimthenet.org/brave-search-presearch-not-censor/|newspaper=Reclaim The Net}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
