From 191818b865b19270c8c38d905141356a6ba01d9a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Markus Heiser Date: Sun, 22 Feb 2026 14:44:21 +0100 Subject: [mod] drop SearXNG's checker (#5767) To date, there is no analysis for the checker that could be evaluated in any meaningful way. - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/issues/3407 - https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/3312 The checker would need to be completely redesigned, but even then, its usefulness and the maintenance required for it would be disproportionate. TBH: In its current form, it is useless and only consumes resources and causes the engines to be blocked, because these tests (query terms) come from *hundreds* of instances and could be interpreted as bot attacks.
