If they block Google, they will likely block DDG an every other search engine.
You'll probably need to be logged in to see anything with rate limits so bots can't crawl the site.
I don't think DDG runs its own indexer. It's a frontend to other search engines.
Right; they mostly use Bing. Bing is the largest search engine that has an official API, so the majority of services that need search functionality use it, including voice assistants like Siri and Bixby, smaller search engines like DuckDuckGo, etc.
Well, that depends on how they implement the block, if its by domain or a blanket block (which would make sense, but I've seen weirder shit done online)
