In the last couple of months I have noticed an increasing trend of supplying me search results that are completely unrelated to the current query and tie back to my location or previous searches. I can say this with a high degree of certainty this is without a doubt beyond the 100th instance this has happened.
My browser is configured against tracking and fingerprinting (in fact all my devices are) which would make it fairly difficult to retain any data unless they are profiling me.
I’m unhappy that Kagi uses geo-location data to provide certain types of results
Oh that sucks, can you turn it off or spoof the location?
You can easily spoof the location on most search engines by using a VPN, but I’d much prefer my search engine solely respond to deliberate input from the user
you can just turn it off, see https://help.kagi.com/kagi/settings/general.html
