The project announced today the introduction of a new feature called “Sync & Backup,” which allows users to import bookmarks, passwords, and personal settings from other browsers to DuckDuckGo. Moreover, it enables users to move that data from one device to another or restore it on a new device in case they lose their original device.
DuckDuckGo’s announcement declares that the new feature can do the following:
Privately sync and access the bookmarks and passwords saved in your DuckDuckGo browsers – including any you’ve imported from other browsers – across multiple devices.
Back up passwords, bookmarks, and favorites in case your device is lost or damaged.
Migrate your bookmarks and passwords to a new device.
Sync your Email Protection account between devices.
I use it for shit I don’t care about which is most of my online presence. Like shopping sites and stuff, if someone managed to get into my passwords and order clothes for themselves I’d just get the money back from the bank.
There isn’t really all that much that can be done to me with a list of sites I’ve shopped in over the years, I don’t even have social media so they couldn’t even impersonate me not that that would matter all that much either.
