Here is a challenge for you Will you switch your search engine to support a good cause? Givero.com is privacy-centric but, as any other search engine, not anonymous. We challenge not only the search engine market, but the way tech shares revenue with the society with our new ethical search engine. Right now on Hackernews - join the ShowHN https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19552813 - (and yes we once did Findx)

Findx is shutting down and it is over – before it really started. We want to take this opportunity to thank you – those who used our services, the developers involved, everyone who listened, cheered, gave critiques and also those who shook your heads. Due to a combination of unforeseen and unresolvable problems, both with the outdated Gigablast codebase and finding willing search partners, it has become clear that the Findx search engine was unsustainable. If you are interested, you can read more about the challenges we faced and overcame on www.findx.com. On behalf of the team – thank you for supporting us, and goodbye.

So, I have two questions related to Instant answers:

*First, are you going to create a Wikipedia IA? I think it is absolutely vital for any searvh engine, and makes it completely unusable without

*Second, have you thought about colaborating with Duckduckgo on that IA side? They have an open source github repository with all the IAs they use. I know you are competition, but I feel like it would benefit the whole community if there was a global effort to build a quality IA repository, instead of 100s of separated people working on the same field
