      I’m not impressed with Kagi. I was lied to by someone at Kagi when I asked a question about their using geo-location data.

      (Well, technically not lied to, but it was clear they were being deliberately evasive and deceptive, which didn’t impress me much, since it’s a paid service I was considering.)

      Edit.

      Obviously, my take may be biased, so I’ve added screenshots from the exchange I had with Kagi, but I’ve blotted out all names for privacy. Even though this left a bad taste in my mouth, I hope I’m not depicting this unfairly, so now you can decide for yourself.

      Edit: If you’re tempted to respond in bad faith, go annoy someone else. I’m not taking the bait, I’ll just block your ass.

      Edit Part 2: Why do all my comments attract the most insufferable neckbeards?

      A. It’s clear why I found it deceptive since he was being a pedant about what constitutes search results (if a widget is summoned by a search term – which didn’t request it btw – then that widget is part of the results. It’s batshit looney to think otherwise)

      B. But I literally posted screenshots for full disclosure and for the sake of honesty – and I’m still getting losers posting cringe in response. Fucking suburbanite straight white male energy stfu

      C. Get blocked, fuckwits. If I wanted your opinion, I’d ask.

        Legitimately, what part of that was deceptive? They outright stated that those specialized widgets you can’t disable. Your post here is far more misleading in comparison.

            You posted to a public forum, but man you’ve really got an attitude about any contest to what you’ve said.
