   One problem, on computers anyway, is that the duckduckgo.xml file   
   located in the "distribution" directory actually throws you under the   
   bus with respect to revealing your operating system!   
      
   On Linux, the tattletale duckduckgo.xml file is located in   
   /usr/lib/firefox/distribution/searchplugins/locale/en-US/duckduckgo.xml   
      
   The solution is to remove the line that tattles on your OS.   
      
   Does anyone know if the same problem exists on Android?
