DDG is a metasearch engine uses Google as a primary search sources, so this would indicate Google is not returning search data to its own APIs.

I feared AI would lead to this, so hopefully I'm jumping to conclusions. DDG, searxng, kagi, and most other alternative search engines rely on this API.

Duckduckgo uses Bing for links.
