Do you have any sources backing your claims regarding Kagi?
That guy just posts to hate on Kagi
I'm an actual person who pays $5 a month for kagi and have recommended it to people. I've never heard of them selling user data to data brokers and a quick search isn't finding anything about it, can you point me to some evidence?
Same. I’m paying ten bucks a month to Kagi, no complaints
As much as I disagree on paying 10$/m for a search engine, I will disagree with your take on their data sharing.
In their privacy policy https://kagi.com/privacy , they state that they collect logs :
Tho I'm not sure how they could fulfill these purposes :
With only logs on how the serice îs used anonymously.
They do send the logs to Sentry for analysis. But without any search query, from what they say.
crickets
Bot here. I disagree, while we tried to masquerade as a user for sure, unfortunately we couldn't get past the damn captcha. One day, humans...
