Comment on LibreY vs SearXNG, which one do you suggest and why?
tubbadu@lemmy.kde.social 10 months agoProbably stupid question: let’s say I selfhost searxng only for myself: google & Co can track all my searches, but doesn’t they pair all the data to the IP of my server? And because of this, they will not be able to show personalized ads to me, using my laptop. Is this wrong?

If the public IP is same, they can serve the same ads.

And what if the server has a static IP address?
SchizoDenji@lemm.ee 10 months ago
Doesn’t matter. They can still serve you ads.

How is this possible? I mean, how can they connect the searches from the ip of the server with your laptop’s ip?
