It is easy to get distracted. Google, Microsoft, Mojeek and Yandex all may not align with our mission to humanize the web in their current form. And some of these companies (may have) had far more shadier practices, depending on your point of view. But now by using their technolgy, they are contributing to our mission. By using their technology, we do not need to necessarly align with their business practices, leadership or mission. If someone does not agree with their government, that does not mean they should not be using the roads and other infrastructure of that country. Should everyone stop using JavaScript because it was invented by the very same person they may not like on a personal level? No, because using a technology is not an endorsment of anyone's political views. Use of Brave's API is not an endorsement of Eich or Brave and is a technological decision to provide the best possible service to Kagi's users. We are staying focused on being in the business of providing best search in the world and showing that a paid business model is the only sane way of doing this.
