If you have the Brave Browser installed on your Windows devices, then you may also have Brave VPN services installed on the machine. Brave installs these services without user consent on Windows devices.
Brave Firewall + VPN is an extra service that Brave users may subscribe to for a monthly fee. Launched in mid-2022, it is a cooperation between Brave Software, maker of Brave Browser, and Guardian, the company that operates the VPN and the firewall solution. The firewall and VPN solution is available for $9.99 per month.
I’ve posted a similar question to asklemmy but more over the focus on preference than privacy. In short the search engine Kagi is really good, Brave search was what I had used for a while. I think search engine choice is a case by case kinda thing, each person uses what they like. There are some other engines I forgot from my post which are more privacy centered.
Kagi is a literal scam
Yes it is 10 dollars a month, but you can create an account and try it for free to see if it is for you. It also does not use your data nor push advertisements which explains the cost.

ddg does that for free
$10/mo is also crazy overpriced for a search engine, they’re really not resource intensive at all
ddg relies on Bing so it isn’t really comparable, idk about kagi’s costs but they claim 1.2 cent per search and an average of 700 searches per month (as what they are serving and hence pricing for)
If you mean has a crawler, ddg does crawl and augments with bing. Kagi doesn’t have any crawler.
And yet, Kagi’s search results far surpass both DDG and Bing.
Do you have any possible way of measuring that, or are you going off of their marketing page
I’m going off of personal experience. I’ve used them all for SEO, and I find Kagi’s results and experience better for my own personal use.
