Ubuntu has extensive designs for privacy settings on both PC and phone.
<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityAndPrivacySettings> As with
everything else in Ubuntu, there's always more to do than we have time
for.

Protracted but non-specific comparisons to DuckDuckGo aren't that
useful. Most useful would be for you to implement privacy features
yourself, or find new contributors to do so. But at a minimum, you
could be more specific about improvements you'd like to see.
