Ah, yeah DDG uses the google browser engines. That could easily explain the different behavior.
It appears to be trying to force the download of the tiktok .apk directly - I haven’t compared the hashes but at least that’s what the names indicate. But the download, and the inserting random strings into my clipboard, happens without interaction a few seconds after the page loads. It’s very odd behavior to see from a legit site.
