It's not a content blocker. It does have a lot of "instant answers" with information put in a box next to search results so you don't even have to click through. e.g. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=who+is+the+prime+minister+of+malay...

Also it has "bangs" which give you shortcuts to lots of other services. https://duckduckgo.com/bang



Guess I worded it a bit strangely but this acts like a content blocker on iOS, but in it's own browser. Most commenters are just commenting on the search engine but this post is about their mobile browser.

I was just curious what benefits you get from switching to this browser vs. using a content blocker with Safari.
