I see our main disagreement being rooted in your use of the phrase "for everyone". It disregards the fact "rare" means exactly, 'some people'.

I do not read the attitude at Kagi to be downplaying the importance of privacy. To me it seems like a mature realization of the limits of online life. Anonymity is very expensive. Try to buy something online if you doubt it.

I disagree with your interpretation of Vlad's position but, I'm cool with your seeing it differently. I suggest you stick with Google and their much better () attitude toward privacy.

ps, I 100% could prompt Claude to rebut every sentence in your post. I do like that approach when it is productive. Except that I decided to talk back to all of you, Claude saved me the time it would take to interpret the original rant. I consider saving time to be a good use. Of course, you probably had fun playing with my text and Claude, so good for you.

Yes. That should give you pause, and is why I included the above.

It will happily confirm your priors for you, even incorrectly. Like when it told you the article didn’t say anything about privacy.
