DuckDuckGo is not owned, nor indirectly controlled, by Microsoft. It is, in fact, a privately held company originally self-funded by its founder and CEO Gabriel Weinberg (until October 2011), then backed by Union Square Ventures and a handful of angel investors. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/DuckDuckGo

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1817829066021499119

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
