The devs at SearXNG have a bot that regularly scans the public instances for changes to the source code and delists them as a public instance if it’s altered.
If you go to https://searx.space/, they show the results of the scans for each instance.
The software is free and open source. You are encouraged to inspect the code yourself to make sure no data is collected!
who says that about any search engine? can you trust them? searXNG is usually run by random people who are less likely to use your data than a larger search company
At least with Google it wont be an individual that can open my data (most likely).
Probably only the AI or whatever can actually read any of it directly.
Who says they are securely operated and don’t store any data??

If you’re using a shared IP, it doesn’t matter.
You are using a VPN or Tor, right?!?
