Even the conversion magic doesn't work (eg "1cm in inches") which one would assume is a separate system

As well as bangs, which give a different error saying to email ops@duckduckgo.com.

Can confirm, from Switzerland.

I was quite confused why my query for a well-known brand name was returning nothing. Bang queries still work.

Image search still works for me. Odd.

Edit: strike that, only for some entries. Must be some cache?
