DDG has haters?

There don't appear to be any DDG haters in the threads on this article. There are two people who seem to hate (or at least dislike) Stephen Wolfram, though.

Did you get to meet Mr Wolfram? Doesn't look like it from the vibe I get from that, but who knows.

No, but I haven't been travelling due to the imminent birth of kid #2. The vibe is good!

Congrats! I remember when WolframAlpha tried getting DuckDuckGo's app off the app store for linking to them... Glad to see them playing nice, now.

That wasn't us actually :) http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2271580

That's pretty cool that you guys negotiated this and they were reasonable.

They seem to generally take a very long-term view of things and are very reasonable.

I read it as haters of the deal rather than haters of DDG. For example, thebooktocome made a comment saying that (s)he was done with DDG because of the deal. Sorry if it was confusing.
