DuckDuckGo’s Privacy Browser, Enhanced Protection & Speed

June 23, 2023
Reading Time: 1 min read

DuckDuckGo has officially released its privacy-focused web browser for Windows to the general public. The beta version is now available for download without any restrictions. The browser aims to protect users from third-party tracking, targeted advertising, search query logging, and profiling by default. It comes equipped with various data protection and security enhancements.

The Windows version follows the earlier release of the beta version for Mac in October 2022, serving as a testbed for addressing major issues before the Windows version’s public beta phase. Notable features include tracker blocking, smart encryption, cookie pop-up management, a “Fire” button to erase browsing history, email protection, and a built-in YouTube player for ad-free and tracked-free video watching.

DuckDuckGo emphasizes that its privacy protection mechanisms and multi-level tracker blockers contribute to the browser consuming approximately 60% less data than Chrome, potentially offering a faster web browsing experience. The developer plans to add support for extensions in future versions, but users can currently utilize a built-in password manager for credential management on login pages. It’s important to note that as a beta version, users may encounter instability and performance issues. Despite this, DuckDuckGo aims to provide a fast, lightweight browser that makes the internet less intrusive and cluttered. In the announcement, DuckDuckGo encourages users to try out the browser, highlighting its commitment to privacy and its ongoing efforts to bring the Windows version closer to parity with its iOS, Mac, and Android browsers.
