I, too, switched to DDG, but sadly my most used bang is !g because in 1/3 cases DDG doesn't find what I am looking for.



Does DDG learn from what people !g for?


I would place my bet on that. That would be a query they need to work on.


I would sincerely hope not! i.e. Tracking.


If that information isn't personalised in any fashion and the data are retained for a minimum period, I'd be OK with sorting out what types of queries aren't satisfied on DDG itself.
