4 reasons to spread the word about DuckDuckGo:
1. Google tracks you, we don't
2. "Incognito Mode" isn't really private
3. Our apps block most hidden trackers
4. Same internet, more privacy
Friends don't let friends get tracked. Share and help them take back their privacy 💪

It's difficult to overstate the importance of @FTC's proposed rule prohibiting employers from imposing wage-crushing, anti-competitive noncompete agreements on workers. Worker advocates should give their full support because this will be a tough fight. nytimes.com/2023/01/05/busin…

The #ADPPA private right of action might be an empty enforcement mechanism given SCOTUS cases of Spokeo and TransUnion. ADPPA would thus preempt future state laws that could give consumers a real and viable private right of action.
