DuckDuckGo targets schools as Google limits AI feature control, offering privacy-focused search alternatives.

DuckDuckGo is promoting its privacy-focused search engine to schools after Google restricted the ability to disable AI features without losing Google Search access. Google announced that AI tools like Gemini would be off by default but could only be enabled individually, causing concern among educators who want more control over AI use. DuckDuckGo offers flexible AI options, including the ability to fully disable AI features, which has increased its app installs by 30%. This move highlights growing demand for customizable AI tools in education as schools seek alternatives to Google's dominant platform.

As of Nov 05, 2026 02:41 WIB, Alphabet Inc Class A (GOOGL) shares are priced at USD 291.79 on Pluang, showing a 4.20% increase in the past day. The stock sees a balanced order activity with 51% buy and 49% sell interest, and typical investors hold for about 88 days. This trading activity occurs amid discussions about AI policy shifts in tech companies, highlighting the evolving landscape for major players like Google.
