A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.
Some Rules
- Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn't great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post
- Don't promote proprietary software
- Try to keep things on topic
- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience
- Be nice :)

Help page from Kagi (I'd understand if you don't trust it), fit for non-techie consumption. https://help.kagi.com/kagi/privacy/how-does-privacy-pass-work.html
So here's the RFC, which defined the protocol in the first place (Kagi didn't invent it, just implements it) https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc9576/
As such they have absolutely no way of 'deciding' to look up a searchers account based on the token used.
That ofcourse does not reduce other ways anyone can track you like fingerprinting.
