DDG

DDG is an acronym that may refer to multiple entities. The two most widely recognized are DuckDuckGo, a privacy-focused web search engine, and DDG, the stage name of Darryl Dwayne Grandberry Jr., an American rapper and YouTube personality.

DuckDuckGo was founded in 2008 by Gabriel Weinberg. It markets itself on user privacy, stating that it does not track user activity or build personal profiles. Its search results are drawn from a combination of its own crawler, DuckDuckBot, and data from partner sources, including major search providers, public databases, and crowdsourced sites. The engine emphasizes encryption by default, and it offers features such as !bang commands that let users search other sites directly from the search box. DuckDuckGo has grown as a privacy-respecting alternative to more data-intensive search engines and is available on web, mobile, and as browser extensions.

DDG is the stage name of Darryl Dwayne Grandberry Jr. He is an American rapper, singer, and YouTube personality who first built an audience through online video content before pursuing music commercially. He has released multiple singles and albums and has collaborated with other artists, gaining mainstream attention through his online presence and streaming platforms.
