DuckDuckGo and StartPage aggregate search results from other search engines, mainly Google.

Yes and no. Here's what DDG says it gets its results from, which does include other search engines like Bing and Google, but also it's own custom crawler and adapters for sites like Wikipedia. They're not just a proxy for Google Search.

Yeah they are also a tool for Microsoft and other massive international monopolies to push their junk on you at the very least.
