DuckDuckGo is pitching its privacy-focused search services to schools, moving to win over education customers at a moment when Google faces criticism over its artificial intelligence policies in the classroom. The company is positioning itself as an alternative for schools wary of Google's approach to AI, as educators and technology commentators debate the trade-offs between the two search providers.

Why now: Google's AI policy changes have drawn backlash from educators, and DuckDuckGo is seizing the moment to market itself to schools.
