So, Google is clearly paying lots of money directly to maintain their lead in the search engine market.
Bad look for Apple as well. They say they take privacy seriously, but are selling their user's data to Google, one of the last companies you would want getting your information if you were concerned about privacy.
Selling their user data to Google? They're putting Google as the default search engine, but users are free to change it. I don't understand how that's the same. People would probably set it to Google anyway these days, which is a shame because Kagi is the best search engine.
Fuck Google and fuck Kagi.
I use DuckDuck Go.
DDG is bing, and it's not very great. The only way to not be a product is to pay for the product you use, otherwise the money has to come from somewhere.
