5. Duckduckgo.com is now my default search engine as of this week. Google has gotten so bad, it's just so frustrating.

It seems I'm getting the opposite of what I'm searching for in the results.
If I search for BLUE I get results for GREEN.

I don't know what it is, but it appears to be intentional.
Fascists would like you to have an instant answer that you will just accept.

Results with links to look through and verify get in the way for a fascist regime.

Getting detailed search results with accurate information is a very powerful thing.

They don't want you to have that power.

And I do remember when it wasn't this way.
