  • good point, I guess one worry here is about the way in which this will affect Firefox (note Firefox here, not the Mozilla Fdn who have managed to Elon their own thing without help, seemingly)

  • would expect that to just get fed into the model in order to make the image recs more personalised to be honest; can't see a world in which more specific-to-content ads mean a business would miss out on the opportunity to also be specific-to-people.

  • it's not a place for meaningful discussion and yet, it seems to have helped them move their project along; I'm not necessarily pushing echo chambers as a positive, but it doesn't seem like they've really hurt rightists across the board in advancing their ideas

  • the right's echo chambers (X, Truth Social) seem to have done very well for their abilities to succeed as a movement

  • Not trying to do FUD and I work for a competitor, but I am a privacy person so I'll provide some links and then it's to you.

    Ecosia's privacy policy on the data they collect and process includes your IP address, search terms and session behavioral data

    Qwant's privacy policy seems better with most stuff you wouldn't like only coming if you make an account. My only pause would be the Huawei relationship which is effectively FUD because there's not really a reason (I just am not keen on this kind of partnership)

    Once again, my opinion is going to be heavily biased here.

  • European Union Alternatives; the conflation of "from Europe" and "from countries in the EU" is one which needs pointing out here. Also all the search options use indexes which come from outside of the EU/Europe.
