The flipside of “the worst she can say is no.”

Why the downvotes? I could see it if Foot Friday isn’t actually a thing (I wouldn’t know, I’m just scrolling my feed). But if Foot Friday is a thing here, this seems on topic.

As a non-technical person at the bottom of the learning curve, I can vouch for its steepness.

people who really need anonymity are very rare. probably less than 100 in the entire world. definitely not typical Kagi users

unless they are criminals, in which case we don’t care that they don’t have full anonymity (nor we want them as customers)

If this is where you’re drawing the “believes only criminals want privacy” argument from, that’s not exactly what the quote says. The wording sucks, but it’s saying:

• Very few people need anonymity.
• Anonymity seekers aren’t our target market.
• The criminal subset of anonymity seekers are even more “not our target market”.

(This bit about criminals is completely unnecessary, though, and its inclusion makes me inclined to believe that Vlad looks down on people who want anonymity. I’m definitely not a fan of this guy.)

I’m sure there a more nuanced takes than mine, but I feel like I can support copyright when it’s correctly used to protect individuals, but not when it’s being abused by corporations and large creators.
