Until search engines punish shit like this it will continue to get worse. Unfortunately search engines typically also own the ad networks.
You know, now that I think about it, that sounds like a really good reason to file an anti-trust suit. Search engines have a clear conflict of interest to prefer content that uses their ad network. Search engines should not have a preference for a particular ad network, but they almost certainly do and that harms the consumer.
We need to communize the internet.
add to that that google turned to crap nowadays and just pushes meaningless bot generated content in the top pages... it's getting almost impossible to use it to find stuff. not sure about other engines because I only started recently being search-engine-curious, so no idea how they were like before
Been using duck duck go for the last year or two. It’s maybe a little better on the bot & blog spam, but not much
Google beats DDG by a mile when you’re searching something super vague like “movie where Statue of Liberty gets slime sprayed inside”
Ghost busters 2?
Yeah that’s what I was thinking of. Is there another? lol
