    I wish DDG defaulted to their no ai search.

    If they want to make silly little jokes about “the other guys and their ai” then maybe don’t use ai shit as your default search option on your own platform?

    So it’s not anti-pervert then. It’s just non-pervert.

    Anti-pervert would be something like sunglasses that zap the pervert sunglasses’ cameras with lasers and damage the sensor. Maybe they don’t have to be so accurate.

      Maybe a sort of anti pervert mesh network where gamma radiation is fired in the direction of whoever wears pervert glasses and eventually kills them with cancer.

      It’s incredibly irresponsible and would have unintended consequences for otherwise innocent people but it would technically work so capitalism says ship it before China does!

    Meanwhile, I recently got new prescription glasses (after wearing my previous pairs for way too long, BTW) and got some that have an IR-blocking coating that’s supposed to block face recognition cameras. Because that apparently needs to be a thing these days.

    (I’m disappointed that these DuckDuckGo glasses don’t have a similar special coating. I like the company I got mine from, but I’d like to see more companies offering privacy-enhancing tech.)

      They’re barely making back the research costs of producing sunglasses without a lithium-polymer battery or a 12 megapixel CMOS camera.

      THE ABOVE COMMENT IS SARCASM.

    Sold out and I can’t seem to pre-order a pair for their next batch (maybe the next allotment is already sold out).

    Oh well, my wallet wins this round.
