A search engine should return what I'm searching. If I type "the daily stormer" (a very unique name which corresponds to something very specific, i.e. the website for the far-right online newspaper by that name), I expect to find that thing in the first 5 results. That's not the case with Google; it's just not there at all. You have articles from other papers talking about it, you've got a wikipedia page talking about it, you've got sites like the ADL and the SPLC talking about it, but not the actual thing itself. Bing, Yahoo, Yandex all return it as the first result. |

When I “search” for something, I am searching for it. I mean, it’s the definition of the word “search” for crying out loud. Somehow over time this idea of a “search engine” got perverted into something that either tries to predict what I don’t know I really want or what someone else thinks I need to see.
