Considering the privacy focus that Apple brings, Duck Duck Go could be an interesting play to reduce Google’s presence from the Apple ecosystem.

Why would Apple need to buy DDG to do this? Why not just make DDG their default search engine?

No.

someone should if only to rename it. why they chose that clumsy name and why they continue to hang on to it is beyond me, i can only imagine its like the first season of silicon valley where the guy who makes the decisions loves it while everyone else rolls their eyes on hearing it

Hell no. That would be about the worst thing they could do to DDG.

Please, let it continue to fly under the radar for a lot longer.
