@lori when I heard about kagi, I was confused as to why anyone would want to be logged into a search engine since that’s even more PII than your ip address + session fingerprint

what happens to the data they collect when the NSA tells the German government that they’re in fourteen eyes? what about when they’re acquired?

@kali Vlad basically handwaves the acquisition idea by saying there'd be no incentive because Kagi's customer base would leave if they did anything bad with their data.

Ignoring that sometimes companies are acquired FOR their data, or their infrastructure, and not just their customer base.

@kali Basically he thinks "well if I can't think of a reason anyone would do it then nobody would do it!"

@lori I just saw your other reply saying “he can’t monologue if too many people disagree with him” and I am saving that post because I’ve seen that exact scummy behavior before and couldn’t put my finger on how to describe it
