I cannot describe how far the accuracy of Google search results has fallen into the gutter.
You would search for a term and get news coverage of that topic.
Now, you get at best 2 articles, while the rest is VPN blogs, two random tweets, and a bunch of forums and blog posts that casually mention the search terms ONCE with no relation to the phrase/context in which they were shared.
I'm honestly thinking of ditching Google for Bing or DDG at this point.
Yes, it's literally THAT BAD!
