Not the least bit surprising to me. I had the misfortune of talking to Kagi's CEO several years ago. Every word out of his mouth was a lie.
Kagi's the one search company I trust less than Google.
- voakbasda 5mo agoI have found few CEOs capable of telling nothing but the truth. Based on that, I am nearly certain that lying is part of the job description.

- nosioptar 5mo agoI don't walk around recording every conversation I have. I'd also argue that calling a tech CEO a liar is far from extraordinary. It'd be extraordinary if I accused him of honesty.
- freehorse 5mo agoOnly problem is that the original quote you commented on was not kagi lying, as they actually say the same here https://blog.kagi.com/waiting-dawn-search https://blog.kagi.com/waiting-dawn-search You said that you were not surprised that kagi was lying, only that they were not in this occasion. When you accuse somebody of lying it makes sense to provide at least some evidence of that. At the very least, they are very clear about which indexes they use and how.
