Ad supported search is the only way people will continue to use the internet. I feel the only real reason the internet is so widely used is because of the accuracy and accessibility provided by search engines and without them, the web as it currently exists will die and become small factions of like-minded individuals on forums. Some people like that idea but I’ll tell you, as someone who lived through the internet in that era, there was some pretty fucked up shit that came out of those spaces.
We need global agora and we need ways to stay connected on unified platforms and we need to maintain history and knowledge. The Internet is our species’s latest evolution. It allows us to combine our collective thoughts and knowledge for better or for worse. Destroying the primary way to navigate the Internet is an awful idea even though the leader of that industry is Google.
