Weinberg said in his post that the desktop browser is going to be similar to DuckDuckGo’s mobile offering with “no complicated settings, no misleading warnings, no ‘levels’ of privacy protection.” Weinberg also said that it won’t be a “privacy browser” but a “privacy app” maybe in a hint that it doesn’t want to get pigeon-holed as an alternative web browser like Brave or Epic.

DuckDuckGo’s founder and CEO Gabriel Weinburg detailed in a year-in-review blog post that the company is working on a privacy browser that’s currently in closed beta. Thanks for continuing to use PortableApps.From its humble beginnings as a niche search engine that prioritized privacy, DuckDuckGo is looking to expand its horizons into web browsers. This will help ensure we can keep building the software you love and keep the flow of awesome apps coming. I'm always happy to bring attention to services that respect your personal data and security, and can support the future of development in a way that fits with our own values. Your personal information will not be tracked, stored, or shared. The download is safe, secure, and 100% private. To start, we're trying out downloads of the Platform, Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition in English, and Q-Dir Portable within your browser through DuckDuckGo's hosting and we'll be adjusting this based on user feedback and download performance. We've been searching for a new provider for some time and this seems like a natural fit. DuckDuckGo's popular search engine, tracker blocking extension, and mobile apps are built around user privacy and security, so their ideals line up perfectly with ours. I'm pleased to announce a new trial partnership with DuckDuckGo, the Internet privacy company, to host some of the downloads you will get from.
