That sounds like a Firefox bug (and a common one I've seen in other software). Tell me what organization. "Debian" would have been perfectly fine to show here.
How is that a Firefox bug if the software it is reported on is Chromium? Those are two very distinct projects.

Unfortunately my search engine is far away, both in terms of functionality and hardware capacity from being able to deal with that. Maybe some day, who knows, but not yet. Even if I'm destined to make the Linux of search engines, we're metaphorically living in 1992 or so.
Would be funny though because it's both developed on a Debian workstation and hosted on a Debian server.

#40Some unintended consequences: > This change caused my chromium browser to report that it's being managed by my "organization". I thought that my machine was somehow compromised. This is terrifying! I wound up deleting my entire chromium profile before I discovered that the root cause was this DuckDuckGo config change. https://bugs.debian.org/956012
Sounds like a Chromium bug, not a Debian bug--it's an insidious way to keep Google search as the default.
