Speculation Over an Apple Search Engine Resurfaces, But Apple Likely Remains Focused on Siri and Spotlight

Multiple developers have seen increased activity from Apple's web crawler Applebot in their website logs recently, reigniting speculation that...

If it has a focus on Apple integration/privacy and is powered by Google, then I will switch to it in a heartbeat.

It would be even better if DuckDuckGo (and the masterminds behind it) were to merge with the Apple search engine…

…preferably called Voyage. :ROFLMAO:

Yeah I would probably be interested in that but I don’t ever see it happening. Apple probably makes too much money from having Google as the default search engine. It would probably cost a lot to run their own.

Report: Apple 'Stepping Up Efforts' to Develop Alternative to Google Search

Also, the name “Voyage” really sticks. I like it!

If it was powered by Google, but results remained anonymous (identical to Startpage), I would also use it in a heartbeat. I’m surprised that most people haven’t considered that outcome yet. Apple would cut their search deal with Google that makes them billions of dollars, but it would essentially be reversed, with Apple paying Google billions of dollars a year in order to have access to their search results for Voyage (😅).

Seriously though, that name serves as a great companion to Safari.
 
Not sure if an Apple Search engine is either on the cards myself, rumors aside. There'a already much speculation of anti-trust actions against all the big names so I suspect this might be something Apple leaves alone.

To quote MacRumors...
Apple is "stepping up efforts" to develop its own search technology as U.S. antitrust authorities target a lucrative deal between Apple and Google that keeps Google's search engine the default option on Apple devices, according to a new paywalled Financial Times report.

I wonder if wild boar bacon is a thing. They sell wild boar meat here (no I haven’t tried it… yet)… not a giant leap from wild boar to warthog really is it? (Is it?) nope. Not a giant leap.
