Google is ready to fill its AI searches with ads

  • wtf that was not misinformation. you need to be logged in when making searches, they can log everything you search server-side and tie it to the same person.

    every time I search something in SearXNG they have no way of telling I'm the same person if my IP has changed. but this is impossible with Kagi. they need to know your account.

    they have basically 0 transparency of their server side, we don't have any code. It's like trusting a VPN provider not to log your every connection because "trust me, bro". this is a necessary risk for using a VPN but not for search engines and I wouldn't recommend anyone to take such a risk when better alternatives exist.

  • he pretends to advocate for privacy when he clearly doesn't know what he's talking about. he's probably just using privacy as a marketing technique to make some money out of it.

  • still better than watching that rossmann clown. there are too many of his fanboys on Lemmy.

  • no. my problem with Wayland is that X worked on all POSIX compatible systems. But Wayland is Linux specific. Try running Wayland on Solaris.

  • Wayland is the worst thing that has ever happened to the Unix-like OSs. I'll stick to X til I run out of programs that support it. And then, I'll stick to the TTY and CLI programs.

    • I wrote an article comparing privacy oriented search engines' privacy policies. Would love your thoughts.

  • that's still only pseudonymity. with SearXNG or even with Duckduckgo, I can just open a new window of my browser with a different IP and be a completely different person. Hell, I can even use a different SearXNG instance and my search query won't even go through the same server than before. With Kagi, that's impossible. You must always be logged in your account. Every search you do, could be potentially linked to your account.
