The reason I initially raised the question to the board was because
there was a long-running board discussion either when I was on the board
or just before involving switching out the search engine on start.fpo
because using google was undesirable. So it had been a board-level issue
before.

We're still using google though, and while ddg isn't perfect, it's
better because of the privacy policy Rahul cited as well as their
donations to open source projects. It also provides choice to the end
user (so if you like google results, you can use ddg as a google
gateway) but it's a less direct / specific endorsement of any one search
engine.
