Most Linux package managers sync the list of all packages they can download. I wonder if some sort of system like that can be used to federate web searching.
So we all just have a copy of the internet and then we can grep for things we are interested in ... I'm actually not super against this.
The storage requirements might be ever so slightly prohibitive.
Well perhaps a selection? You don't need the data set for crotcheting or perl coding if that's not up your alley.
Once you do that though you end up telling people what you are interested in which goes against the whole purpose in the first place.
Ah ok so we're talking perfect safety here
