was looking for alternative search engines and found this. flashed my mind that this is a joke. it's not. might be better frontend of G than the DDG.

Simple as can be. Retrieves Google Web results only (not images, videos etc.), promptly. Connects to [encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com] to retrieve sites' thumbnails, so if either Google servers or thumbnails bother just block access to [encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com] with 'uBlock Origin' for instance. Code is as clean as simple which allows easy CSS editing in case you consider that the basic page display is excessively minimalist. I haven't installed this extension but I have added QuackQuackGo (smile!) to my search engines via a smart keyword ('QQ', what else?). If you want quick, private access to Google Web search results, this neat little extension will add itself as a search engine... or just visit its website. Simple, clean sites are nowadays not legion, hence a nice score. 4 stars because IMO the display, even remaining simple, could be slightly improved.

Is QuackQuackGo Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

QuackQuackGo requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

High Can change search providers, which could redirect searches to malicious sites, posing moderate risk.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

QuackQuackGo has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
