Kagi Search Launches Privacy Pass: Truly Anonymous Search
2025-02-13
Kagi Search is announcing a new privacy feature: Privacy Pass, a protocol standardized by the IETF, allowing users to authenticate without revealing their identity. Using cryptographic tokens, Privacy Pass ensures true anonymity. Kagi also launched a Tor onion service for enhanced privacy. Privacy Pass is integrated into Kagi's Orion browser, Android app, and Firefox/Chrome extensions (Safari is not yet supported). While Privacy Pass significantly enhances anonymity, users should still be mindful of side-channel information like IP addresses and browser fingerprinting. The implementation is open-source.
