As an Indonesian resident and a long time DDG user this is immensely frustrating.

It seems to me that internet censorship is becoming more and more pervasive globally and whilst there can be legitimate reasons (eg: CSAM) blocking a search engine like DDG is a massive over-reach. Unfortunately, most Indonesians won't notice as they happily let Google, Meta et al track everything and everyone and are unlikely to be using DDG.

This is one reason among many that I have vpn/vps/etc.

At least duckduckgo is only blocked at the dns level!

My question would then be whether this easily avoidable type of blocking is a form of protest from those mandated to implement blocking.

As is often done in Indonesia, most would probably opt to leave that unmentioned.
