DuckDuckGo has added the new AI-based image filters and improved scam blocker to its privacy-focused search and browsing tools. The features preventively tackle false information, and malicious threats, this is the commitment to a safer and privacy-driven experience of this platform.

Highlights:

• AI filters automatically blur potentially sensitive images in search results.
• The scam blocker identifies and stops phishing sites before they load.
• Features work within DuckDuckGo's Privacy Browser and search engine.
• All processing occurs privately on-device; no data is sent to servers.
• Updates provide proactive defense against online threats.

On-device artificial intelligence employed by AI-based image filters instantly analyzes the search results and blurs explicit or graphic images before they display completely. The users are allowed to click and see the image. The privacy-first strategy guarantees the processing of sensitive material on the local level, preserving the anonymity of users.

The enhanced scam blocker prevents such phishing websites, counterfeit logins pages and hateful websites that might cause harm. The browser also blocks immediate access when a threat is noticed and shows warning so that users could not tamper with their security. This is a background protection that offers privacy-First.

These characteristics show that DuckDuckGo is inclined to create all-embracive privacy-first security. Image blocking and scam blocking in combination can help address both threats at once. They are able to browse with less risk, with on-device protection in advance. The privacy-first shield has been enabled to everyone.
