I would like to join politicians and corporations in divorcing the conventional relationship between my actions and their consequences.

Where to I sign up?

Be smart Brazil. Did you really miss it that much when it was gone?

You want to compare the hard evidence on abuse between paid search engines and unpaid search engines? I’m happy to work through that data with you.

I pay anonymously through crypto accounts. It’s easy and I can open new Kagi accounts if I want. I’m saving a beetle for you.

There is no propensity to do this at all. It just you being a prick I think. You are clearly too young to remember when Google first came out. Harnessing the power of search is exciting! The internet may be getting shitier, but there is still fun to be had. Im sorry if you’ve never experienced that.

Omg no. You have a diversified data set?

Neither is beer

Why have you not tried Kagi? If it’s important to you to have good search and you don’t like being spied on and having ads shoved down your throat, it’s worth paying a small fee for quality instead of paying with your privacy for crap results. It’s been a breath of fresh air. Searching is fun again. It also indexes Lemmy. Traditional Search has largely gone to crap, but I’m tired of everyone complaining that these mega companies offering ‘free’ services aren’t holding their end of the deal instead of supporting the people that are doing something about it. I’m not optimistic things like qwant or searx will be sustainable or deliver high quality results, but by all means donate to them with time or money if you believe in them.

Interesting, tempting to seek something like this for my weird ass arthritis but being young and the risk of oncogenesis with this plus the simple fact that we know so little about autoimmune disorders and they are so incredibly heterogenous and individual, it seems there is a lot of room for things to backfire with genetic manipulation. Nonetheless I applaud these efforts and hope it leads to more discovery and relief.
