Search engine code was always opensource, anyone can start their instance now. But we are opening up access to our instance and make improvements opensource. You still have choice to setup search engine yourself, but there is cost associated with maintaining and setting things up. Example by @palasatenea is perfect, Linux is opensource and yet it is one of the safest operating systems. I will post some updates soon about recent improvements. We mostly get feedbacks from dapps using it and improve or add some new parameters to help them give best discovery options to their users.
