DuckDuckGo
What it is
The privacy-focused search engine. It deliberately doesn't pass search terms to the sites you click.
Why there's no full URL
DuckDuckGo uses a referrer policy that shares only its origin. Where that doesn't work, it routes the click through r.duckduckgo.com to strip the terms.
What traffic it represents
Clicks from DuckDuckGo search results.
