DuckDuckGo has blocked Kiwi Farms

[DracoRincewind]

So much for being the free speech speech engine.

I couldn't find it on DDG as either 'kiwifarms' or 'kiwi farms'. Changed vpn location from Toronto to Texas and it became the first result for 'kiwi farms'.

IT'S THE BANKS!

Quick redpill for you: DuckDuckGo's founder, Gabriel Weinberg, sold his first startup, NamesDatabase for $10,000,000 to Classmates.com in '06, before founding DuckDuckGo. NamesDatabase was registered under the company Opobox, Inc., which is now long since defunct.

That's interesting. The #1 privacy-focused search engine was developed by the same guy who created an early social network. Hmm.

That's worth digging into.

What a bunch of quacks.

The owner has a jewish name and the company has roots to israel / tel aviv. Maybe that peterson jew clip you made pushed a button.

edit. It's gone from bing now, too. The power of tommy tooter truly knows no bounds.

Experimenting further, leaving out "kiwi farms" or "kiwifarms" but searching very kiwi farms topics brings up references from other sites (Nulls encyclopedia dramatica entry for example, or the kiwi farms wikipedia page) but not kiwi farms itself, at least not in the first bunch of results.

 

[Kiwi Jeff]

I can get kiwifarms.net as the first result on mobile.

 

[Brundlefly]

It always kind of felt like one. Their whole "we're private, just trust us" deal felt like a good cop/bad cop kinda deal with Google. I haven't seen any reason as to exactly why I should ever trust them with my info.

I always thought it was weird they allegedly had all this traffic but were still sharing a small building with an ophthalmologist in a Pennyslvania town with less than 6,000 people.

But Encyclopedia Dramatica is A-OK lol

And they have the fucking balls to claim to be "anti censorship" on their homepage.

It's Yaniv who's doing it, not Tommy.

I switched from America to Canada and got it that way. At least be consistent with your censorship, DDG!

 

[Diabolical diabetic]

Pretty janky how it still auto completes but doesn't show anything when searched

 

[Marissa Moira]

I'd say they're doing this because we're getting too close to The Truth.

My question is this, WHICH TRUTH?

 

[Bongsnake McGee]

Could also be shitty tech shennanigans.

kiwi farms and kiwifarms yield no results on the first page, but "kiwifarms" with quotes does.

 

[JM 590]

Interesting. Searching for "kiwi farming" gets you everything but KiwiFarms. And of course, with RationalWiki as the first result correlating to KiwiFarms proper, because of course it is.

Use Searx instead. DDG was a honeypot from the start.

Clown world and the such.

Hoping the kike that founded DDG chokes and realizes what he's feeding into by removing sites from DDG. But, he won't, because Jews.
