Don't use Google Chrome problem solved.

Google is forcing the door wide open to be replaced by a unbiased search engine by a more intelligent culture... any brahs with programming skills ready to become the next billionaires?

It's not really the lack of skills the problem, the linux/open source crowd would have come up with a more than just descent search engine a loooooong time ago if this was only a matter of work hours and skills as it is for user hosted

The real problem, is bandwidth/server cost quite frankly

A google is like, idk, billions of requests a day. I throw that number randomly and... https://www.quora.com/How-many-search-queries-does-Google-serve-worldwide-every-day-How-many-repeated-queries-are-processed-per-day Yeah it was 10,8 billion requests in 2016

Imagine the infrastructure you need to keep up with the demand, it just doesn't come cheap, who's going to pay for that? You'll need to run ads and shit to pay for that correct? Well, pretty much google's business model then, with the same types of hassle/constraints attached with it...

But let's say you solved the hardware related problem, like P2P based search engine or whatever, the problem is gone

Second problem is the sanitization of search results, you're going to have to filter those results because you evidently don't want to deliver the raw results, people would be horrified, every time you search for any given random crap pic you would end up swimming in a sea of pedo and murder porn

There are AI algos for that, but you also have to have humans doing it as a second layer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9GLo2YfwHRI, and you're going to have to pay for those humans, and they'll have to have some level of permission to delete this or that form searches... Which in the case of a P2P based search engine... Starts to be problematic

who's going to pay for that?

Uh, some jewish bankers who print money?
