[Bug-gnuzilla] DuckDuckGo's JavaScript

DuckDuckGo serves users with non-free JavaScript.  By including DuckDuckGo, GNU 
IceCat and GNUzilla point users to a non-free program. (With GNU IceCat and 
GNUzilla, this non-free JavaScript is blocked by LibreJS, and the website 
functions in limited mode. But users can disable LibreJS if they want, and they 
may also want to tell a friend about DuckDuckGo; both such use-cases would make 
people use non-free software and it would be GNUzilla's fault for showing the 
user that the non-free program exists.) 

Should we still keep DuckDuckGo in the default list of search plugins?
