For me, no.

I'm glad Vivaldi's AI-free, but I don't trust any software built on Chromium. From a security and privacy standpoint, I think people should run for the hills there.

DDG I used for years, but switched when I discovered how sketchy they are. Sure they don't have AI turned on by default, but they're still building their own AI, which is still ethically terrible. And they quietly censor adult-oriented results like for dildo sellers, even with safesearch off, and have never acknowledged it. So I can't trust DDG.

1. An AI-free web browser & web browser engine

2. An AI-free search engine & search index

3. An AI-free operating system & kernel

@dangoodin Word to the wise: be sure and independently verify anything Ars posts. They've been caught publishing AI slop before, so needless to say, their editorial standards are shit.
