What is it?
DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials is an extension for Safari that aims to block third-party trackers hidden on websites, such as those used by advertisers, which are used to collect data and build a profile of the user. While the blocker is developed to protect users right after installation, DuckDuckGo advises it is possible to whitelist sites of a user’s choosing, for example, to fix issues with session management for some online venues.
How to install it:
To install the extension, users can download it from the Mac App Store, with it requiring macOS 10.15 or later to function. While the extension isn’t available on iOS, there is a DuckDuckGo Privacy Browseravailable which offers similar functionality.
