    But they’re so innovative! They absolutely aren’t deserving of a massive antitrust lawsuit… /s

      Something is not perfect in the world. Gosh, I sure hope the American government comes along soon and corrects this by force.

        Anti-trust is not about seeking perfection, it’s a defense against abuses of power. That’s a good thing unless you like to be abused by the powerful, in which case lick some more boots.

        Eh I mean alphabet and Google do have legitimate reasons for antitrust lawsuits, but that’s independent of how shit Google search has become.

        Anyway, for those who are fed up with the terrible results, use Ecosia. I’ve basically never needed to use anything else and the advertising money goes towards planting trees responsibly to rebuild ecosystems.
