Not sure why you misinterpreted what I said while having my quote right in front of you ? Note that I used the word "anonymity" in that sentence, and not the word "privacy" like you interpreted (perhaps you took the two as synonyms, but these are two very different things and are often conflated).
I am not sure that true discrete anonymity is possible on the web and if it is, it would be very expensive to get. Kagi is definetely not pretending to be offering anything of the kind (mostly due to paid nature of the service, although there are steps that can be taken like near-anonoymous email addresses and payment cards to achieve a solid level of anonymity with Kagi).
On the other hand, I do believe that privacy online should be a right of every single person on this planet. We are 100% commited to user-privacy. Our products - both search and browser - have zero tracking and zero telemetry (this is easilly verifiable). User private information is only a liability for us and is not something we need or want. We are in the business of selling search as a product, not selling ads or data.
Happy that clarifies it, happy to answer any questions.
