Duckduckgo boasts of being one of the Internet's safest search engines. It claims not to track or profile users, and that your searches are safe in their hands.

Turns out ... that was a lie. DuckDuckGo has recently been exposed for having a secret data-sharing deal with Microsoft in which all searches and activities of its users are shared directly with Microsoft and its various sub-companies for the purposes of creating marketing and behaviorial profiles.

In this story we talk about DuckDuckGo's violation of your trust and privacy, how it affects your online experiences, and what you can do to keep yourself safe, secure, private and anonymous.

I recently challenged myself to make an expanded string quintet arrangement around the theme from the popular anime, DEATH NOTE. My son got me hooked on a couple other shows, namely Demon Slayer and Attack on Titan. Death Note will be the next show I binge watch :).

The theme has an interesting meter (alternating 13/8 and 14/8), and it's extremely stark and transparent: just a melody and a bassline. I tried to make the orchestration as colorful and interesting as possible, using only solo strings. It takes on a much different vibe from the original - almost sounds like something Stravinsky would write!

And then after sitting on the arrangement for a while, I couldn't resist but to add a subtle bass synth pulse, just to fill out the bottom end.
