I have built blind signature authentication stuff before (similar to privacy pass) and one thing I’m curious about is how you (will) handle multi device access?

I understand you probably launched with only unlimited search users in order to mitigate the same user losing access to their tokens on a different device. But any ideas for long term plans here? When I built these systems in the past, I always had to couple it with E2EE sync. Not only can that be a pain for end users, but you can also start to correlate storage updates with blind search requests.

Either case, this is amazing and I’m gonna be even more excited to not just trust Kagi, but verify that I don’t need to trust y’all. Congrats.

They forced me off of it due to offerings they were no longer servicing. Told me I had to self host and export all my data. I attempted this and it never worked. I abandoned that server and my profile I used across many matrix instances (and somehow my matrix room continued to run without me hosting it, and without an admin running it).

I will never use nor recommend them ever again. They clearly do not know how to operate a business nor an open source project.

We work with Edgeless Systems who manages the GPU enclave on Azure that we speak to from our AWS Nitro instance. While not ideal, the power of enclaves and the attestation verification process, we at least know that we're not leaking privacy by going with a third party GPU enclave provider.

IMHO, Apple's PCC is a step in the right direction in terms of general AI privacy nightmares where they are at today. It's not a perfect system, since it's not fully transparent and auditable, and I do not like their new opt-out photo scanning feature running on PCC, but there really is a lot to be inspired by it.

My startup is going down this path ourselves, building on top of AWS Nitro and Nvidia Confidential Compute to provide end to end encryption from the AI user to the model running on the enclave side of an H100. It's not very widely known that you can do this with H100s but I really want to see this more in the next few years.

I’ve enjoyed building on nitro myself and most things should run in it just fine, just need to build the networking vsock proxy into the nitro image for anything that needs networking (such as DB, where you store the encrypted at rest data).

Recently read from “Made to Stick”: “Don’t just say popcorn has 40g of trans fats. Everyone knows trans fats are bad, but how bad is bad? Say popcorn has more trans fats in one serving than a whole day of greasy junk food”

I’m curious about how well the health features translate over to the android phone. Is it mostly just to track health metrics locally on the Apple Watch, or is there any sort of “export/sync to android phone” for health?

I’ve been really curious about other open source (or at least reversed engineered) devices like the Colmi, and while I’m still an Apple consumer, prefer to track and keep things locally and private to myself with my own apps and scripts.

Until they start using nvidia confidential compute and doing end to end encryption from the client to the GPU like we are, it’s just a larp. Sorry, a few words in a privacy policy don’t cut it.

I don’t care how cheap they are. You get what you pay for.
