Kagi isn’t a competitor to Google because search engine isn’t Google’s product.
Collecting user data and monetizing it is Google’s business product, and they are far and away ahead of any other “competition”.
They don’t even need the search engine anymore to collect user data. They have millions of people using Chrome, watching YouTube, using Gmail, using an Android phone…etc
I literally just wrote out how it works and you are repeating it back like it’s new information 😆
