Despite v7.0.6 being released just yesterday alongside OS X 10.9.5, Apple has released another version of Safari for Mavericks, 7.1. The release mainly follows in the steps of its iOS 8 sibling, introducing secure search site DuckDuckGo as an alternative to the likes of Google or Yahoo. Security for Yahoo searches has been improved, as entries into the search field are now encrypted.

Minor changes include improvements to Reader and AutoFill compatibility with websites. The update can be downloaded via the Mac App Store.

Put a search term into DuckDuckGo, got 3 results. Same term in Google... 23,000 results.

Not switching yet.
