Race to the bottom. Vicious cycle. More ads, fewer users, less ad revenue, more ads. Managers think they are being clever when they hide the ads and click bait. And now users have alternatives (searx, you.com, brave, duck) though some of them are giving up the fight after LLMs (neeva.com) and some people are building their own (using meilisearch elasticsearch pinecone etc - search.qary.ai).
