    It showed me the same thing, but after searching again a few times I’m now seeing a summary of the articles on their homepages.

    Side note: I’ve had a weird bug a few times with DDG lately, where it showed me results for current events that were completely unrelated to what I was looking for. I searched for something like “10 inch chef’s knife” but the results were as though I had typed “US house of representatives speaker.” This has happened maybe three or four times in the last two weeks.

      This happened to me earlier but I was searching phrases in German and it was pulling results for the Israel and Hamas war exclusively. Nothing related to my term.

      My search was “ Ein schwer zu tötendes Unkraut” which translates roughly to “a difficult weed to kill”.

        I do have an idea how “a difficult to kill, unwanted growth” could be put into relation to a war fueled by hatred.

          I guess. But it was literally every result. I wish I got a screenshot. I wouldn’t bet an eye if I saw one or two articles but every single listing? It seems way off at that point.
