Thank you! Your concern is shared by many users and realistically speaking there is not much we can do, but hope to survive long enough to build trust. It is somewhat ironic that the only business model that has hope of not being interested in private information, does require an account. While there is nothing inherently bad with accounts, all the other services we are competing with, that have been exploiting user…
I think a big concern is some government agency basically saying "you have to start logging, and you better do it quietly." I'd suggest a warrant canary. It's better than nothing.

Our system is not designed with this tying accounts and searches in mind. Doing that change would require a major refactor and probably month or more of work, stopping everything else. I just do not see that happening.

At you.com we believe in user choice - private mode where we track nothing and personalized mode in an account where you can select your preferred sources like Reddit or Quora, StackOverflow, etc. For now private mode has no ads, but sadly, it might only be monetizable with private ads in the future, similar to DDG..
I really like seeing more competition entering the search space and competing against Google, but it's a huge bummer when someone continually touts their "private" product while routinely ignoring comments asking for clarification around something that suggests it's not actually private.
Can you please shed some light on this?
