Ecosia, I can understand. Their point isn't being private or anything, it's planting trees. Bing has better pricing, so they went for them.
Duckduckgo, Startpage, Qwant, and a bunch of other ones though... they talk about having their own indices, own infra and what-not, but yesterday just proved they are a bing proxy.
