I’m curious about how DuckAI is able to stores chat conversations.
How it is able to store my conversation for over a month?

thanks a lot
From the DDG Help Page
Chats are stored in your browser cache
All the browser settings are also stored there, too. I turned all the AI stuff off, then the next time I booted up my PC the AI was back. Turned it off again. Same thing the next time I logged back on…
I finally looked into it and it was because I had firefox set to clear the cache on shutdown.
thanks a lot for the clarification
Fucking DuckDuckGo having an X account and having their official community on Reddit. They have gone to shit with their crap Ai now. They don’t even have a contract me or email on their website to send complaints. Fuck corporations.
Fucking hate how we can’t have any nice things.
How is a toddler supposed to learn anything if their memory is erased after a month?
What do you expect? Don’t use AI…
I guess my question should be how they managed to do this without forcing us to create an account
Device profiling, user identifiers, processor identifiers…
I have spoofed my device id for at least twice and I doubt it have access to my device id
could you explain more?
Do you have any proof a website could identify specific processor bypassing restrictions set by a private browser?
Read about browser fingerprinting.
in this case the cause is cookie
Funny thing is, in the past 4 years or so, I’ve been using those cookies to my advantage.
As far as Google knows, I’ve been at the same location for the past 4 years. I have other private devices when I’m out and about that have never signed into Google nor had location services activated.
I walk both sides of the fence, just to confuse the system…
