Kagi indirectly funds the Kremlin's regime, just to know where your money goes if we're talking about not supporting google.

You make it sound like a significant amount is going to Kreml but I assume the API cost for using Yandex from Kagi is neglectable and only a fraction of that goes to the Russian government. Isn't this more of a symbolic thing to request not cooperating with Russian companies?

  • For some people it doesn’t matter how negligible. And it’s better to know and make up their own mind.

    • I think that "it's better to know" only really holds up if the scope / context is also included. To put it in concrete terms, I'd amend your statement like this:

      Kagi indirectly funds the Kremlin's regime by paying for Yandex API access.
