OK, you think 1.4 billion people without the freedom to search is ok? LOL.

I wouldn't say Google is search, per se. I haven't used Google for search in a few years.

If Google search went away for more than 24 hours, Bing/DDG/others would quickly get overwhelmed as people learned about alternatives and switched.

Bing might be able to auto-scale using Azure infrastructure but there might not be enough hardware even there.
