Comment(by phobos):

 The default startpage widget censors searches by enabling the 'web/picture
 family filter'. It's unclear who decides what is 'family friendly' here,
 maybe google, maybe ixquick. To use startpage, we would have to generate a
 custom plugin or append the queries with the necessary parameters.  This
 is the same situation with DDG.
