Are search engines removing access to the accessible internet?
🗣️ DISCUSSION 💬
Go to Google, DuckDuckGo, Qwant, any search you want, hit the Images tab and search for something innocuous like "Tomatoes"
See how far you get before you get cut off. Yandex lets me get the farthest of all the ones I've tried.
When I was younger I remember this going on and on as long as you wanted. Now only "approved sites" are shown? I work in IT and this was a big WTH to me.
Heightened awareness.
I now get maybe 4 pages of results now for searches I used to get dozens of before...
Metacrawler still seems to work decently, thank you for the recommendation!
Edit: still ends after 30 pages.
Well at least that means there's absolutely been some kind of awakening by its very definition
Me too. I don't understand how this is suddenly a thing. The search engines have been censored a long time. I noticed the big censorship push right after Trump got elected the first time. Before the election, I could look up "pizzagate." After the election, no can do.
If I want the dirt, I usually just come here.
Agreed. I wish I did a better job of backing up my past research.
