Sending your searches to DuckDuckGo is OK because they're committed to protecting your privacy.

Sending your searches to Apple is bad because... they're also committed to protected your privacy but they're Apple so it's a big conspiracy.

You may have missed the point. Sending them to DDG is OK because the user _intended to send them to DDG_. That was the entire purpose of the user's searching experience to begin with. Apple being strung into it is different - the user doesn't need Apple's involvement to complete the search.

DuckDuckGo Search Suggestions and Spotlight Search Suggestions are separate features in Safari. Either can be enabled or disabled by the user in the Safari settings.
