Beware that it just forwards your queries to openai
We have agreements with model providers to further protect your privacy.
As noted above, we call model providers on your behalf so your personal information (for example, IP address) is not exposed to them. In addition, we have agreements in place with all model providers that further limit how they can use data from these anonymous requests that includes not using Prompts and Outputs to develop or improve their models as well as deleting all information received within 30 days.
Um, how about no? Love DDG but good lord are we just supposed to take openai’s word for this privacy? Lol
I’m happy to stick with Brave. Far superior to DDG in literally every way.
The irony of posting from infosec about how superior Brave is. Bruh moment.
I’m sorry that not everyone from my instance believes that Firefox is the only option 🙄
Dude, there is degoogled chromium, and various other blink engine choices, but touting brave as a “superior” option? Oof. Big oof.
On the gecko side of things, there are a ton of great choices as well. All of them are better in every single way than brave.
Because it objectively IS. It passes privacy tests in so many areas where others fail and I’m not just talking about those privacy test sites, I’m talking tests we can run ourselves. It’s fine if you don’t like Brave but don’t let your emotions get in the way of the fact that it is, by default, the best option for privacy out of the box. Sure, you CAN harden Firefox or use Librewolf but even those don’t always succeed in passing those tests like Brave does.
Bro. Be better.
“Objectively”
“Superior”
Your use of these words make me think that you don’t understand what they mean. Go ahead, use brave all you want. Big oof.
It IS. It’s a fact. You can run the tests yourself.
Smh.
They really think their target audience will like it?
Well, I mostly haven’t used the existing tools because I did not trust the service providers with my privacy, and also I do not think these are such an all important tools.
However this is a proxy, basically. Isn’t it?
So if we are fine using youtube through (video proxying instances of) Invidious and Piped, then this should be fine too (if you don’t input private info of yours or others, that is)
