But then the obvious next question is: is it still a browser, then? In the same vein as asking whether a tool that can extract data from PDF files is a "PDF Reader" (probably not) or a tool that runs a game demo for benchmarking purposes is still "the actual game" (definitely not).

It's a web data tool, but as something not used for browsing, by definition this is not a browser.

Now that OpenAI basically abondoned Atlas, which had a truly novel architecture, let's see if this more obvious technical route (not saying this to diminish the achievement!) would gain traction.

Huge chunk of internet already moved to CloudFlare. It's only reasonable to move the browsers there too. If the traffic doesn't leave CloudFlare it's huge saving for them.

wish it was open source so it can be run locally

a welcome addition although it'd be very easy for websites to fingerprint and block

We will open source soon.

You can block today, Kitesurf doesn't try to hide.

From the final notes section of their announcement blog post:

> One last thing: we're going to open source Kitesurf once we're ready — hopefully soon. Our goal is to let any customer deploy their own version of Kitesurf on their own accounts, if they want to.
