"Search everything in few clicks" - poorly phrased or actually promotes navigating by clicking instead of using keyboard?

Seems like it doesn't say anywhere which language(s) it support? Guessing it's English only.

I think it's very natural that code in questions is vulnerable to SQL injections as it should be a stripped down example demonstrating the issue that the poster is dealing with, not necessarily a copy-paste of code that's in production.

I created a fork of AnyBar with added support for specifying an icon id for any icon from icons8.com and the status icon will change to it. https://github.com/niklasberglund/AnyBar-icons
Just now quickly whipped it together. Needs improvement(error handling and asynchronous downloading) and packages.

The uppercase G in getAwesomeNess() bothers me :( (in the title here)

Is it supposed to say "web server" instead of "web scraper"?

Agreed. Any plans on releasing this open source? Would be cool if others who are interested could set up country-by-country versions for Asia for example. Like one for Vietnam, Japan etc.

The developer portal at https://developer.nutiteq.com mentions OpenStreetMap, but the start and product pages doesn't. No link either. Perhaps you provide more sources, I haven't looked into the product very carefully. Your support told me OSM is used as map data source, didn't mention any other source. My understanding of the OSM license agreement is that you have to make it more explicit. But I'm no lawyer.
"Our requested attribution is "© OpenStreetMap contributors". You must also make it clear that the data is available under the Open Database Licence. This can be achieved by providing a "License" or "Terms" link which links to www.openstreetmap.org/copyright or www.opendatacommons.org/licenses/odbl."
Regardless whether required or not I think it'd be cool of you to mention it more explicitly since you're creating a business around it.

Seems like no attribution is given to OpenStreetMap? That's not nice.

The title "Open-source DuckDuckGo" is sadly very misleading, as only few selected parts are open source.

Also thinking about this. Wouldn't it be a good idea to open source it and cut down on your staffs' working hours. Seems like you got a fairly big user base so there should be developers out there willing to contribute. Perhaps you could cut down on your costs and merge pull request from open source contributors.

I don't mind free stuff, but to be honest I don't see why you release it for free. Seems like you had something sustainable going on. One person selling everything he owns to pay 3 persons' salaries don't seem sustainable.
