["Frank Ramirez" < >]

In the spirit of nathan’s  “…. It would serve well as an unbiased source to help convince someone who is sympathetic to VRM, but needs a persuasive boost to absorb the alternative vision VRM offers….”

 

I thought the below article  on the traffic growth on duckduckgo  would be of interest.

ESTIMATE: If you discount the value of Average CPC of $0.50 by say 80% due to the loss of data then this is over $100M  of  revenue generated by a search engine whose primary differentiation is privacy.

 

Who said you cannot make a viable business out of privacy ?
