Anyone know why duckduckgo.com now redirects
me to html.duckduckgo.com/html and clears the input
field, so that I have to re-enter the search terms?

I ran SmartSniffer on it to see if there was some kind
of funny business and found that it's calling an IP that
resolves to Microsoft Azure in both cases!
52.149.246.39

So the privacy search engine is actually running off
the MS Azure hosting? That's tacky.


I noticed another poster quoting Santayana, and that seemed like
