Who would they sell the data to? Google? Ohhhh noooooo...
More seriously, as long as it's paired with a "But their search results are still better than Google's trashfire", I'm not sure it would matter. Their tagline is "Fast, accurate, and ad-free", not "Fast, accurate, ad-free, and private."
- vunderba 3y agoMaybe try reading more than one sentence. "We care about data protection: We will be good stewards of any personal information you share with us. We do not log or associate searches with an account. More at our privacy policy." literally on the main page. Smh.

- BugsJustFindMe 3y agoThat's great but really misses the point. People sign up for Kagi because they want better search results. Any privacy issues are largely peripheral.
- JohnFen 3y agoThat's me. I do love that Kagi is probably much more private than other engines, but the real draw for me was that it's a search engine that actually works well. Bottom line, that's what I'm paying for. If Kagi became a bad actor with my data, that would just make them like the majority of other search engines, so big picture, I'd not be any worse off. And I'd still have access to a search engine that lets me find what I'm looking for without a lot of struggle.
