Brave 宣佈 Brave Search 獨立,不再使用 Bing 的資料了:「Brave Search removes last remnant of Bing from search results page, achieving 100% independence and providing real alternative to Big Tech search」。
依照 Brave 的說明,先前大約 7% 是來自 Bing 的 API:
Every Web search result seen in Brave Search is now served by our own index. We’ve removed all search API calls to Bing, which previously represented about 7% of query results.
但只要商業模式還是廣告,我應該不會去用... 但比起目前市場上一堆包其他家 search engine 的搜尋引擎來說,這的確是個好消息。
