I use duck duck go as an alternative to google.
In the last few days I have seen a lot of glitches in the search results.
Many links lead to blank pages.
At other times links seem to have random characters substituted that make the link fail.
Below is an example.

Is anyone else getting this sort of thing?

I have no problems with duck duck go in the past two days.
I'd be doing a very thorough review of my computer if that happened to me (to look for malware) - check on a different machine if you can.

I use duck duck go every day, very often. No glitches to report here.

Beware of something called invidi which seems to attach itself to searches on all web engines; wish I understood more about it!

Unfortunately no is ever going to catch up with Google unless they have alien technology. It's like a mathematical fact.
