Google search results have turned into shit anyways. 90% of times asking chatGPT is faster and more reliable

Then the EU will bar Google from operating. They rarely screw around with this stuff.

For those looking to stop using big tech crap that is flaunting EU law:
* [Kagi](https://kagi.com) is US based and for pay, but they are not just talking the talk; it really is a premium experience. They do use google results, but have their own search stuff on top.
* [Ecosia](https://ecosia.org) is a european company. It’s just a ‘front end’ for google searches right now but they are planning to make it a true stand-alone search engine.

Google has become a dead internet access portal.

Ok, good bye.

So you forbid it because of non-compliance with the law. Case closed.
Also, start fining Google, if they keep not following our laws a ban should be in the table.

who even uses Google nowadays, when there’s chatGPT

I wonder if they obtained any assurances from Trump before proceeding with this.

They will cave. Europe’s too big a market.

If, for one reason or another, Google remains your searcher of choice, try adding udm=14 as your default. It removes all AI and other clutter, it’s the Google of yore.
Who would be the fact checker? Not sure why they’d be an authority on the truth

what type of orwellian nightmare is this
will the EU “fact check” google’s “fact checking”?

Then ban them from the EU. Get out of here with this BA. Either comply with the law or you don’t get to partake in our market and the benefit of operating in the 2nd largest economy on the planet.

“Fact checks” will just be used to promote ministry of truth disinformation aligned with transatlanticists’ interests anyway. It’s meaningless.
For example: In Germany, literal Nazi propaganda lies (e.g. [the double genocide myth](https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/zuroff-israel-should-not-recognize-holodomor-as-genocide-578308 )) have recently been protected by law in an attempt to promote anti-Russian sentiments and “denying” such Nazi propaganda lies now carries potential prison terms similar to Holocaust denial. If the “fact checkers” will promote ahistorical disinformation like that as fact it will only reinforce literal Nazi propaganda lies while pretending to be about “fighting disinformation”.

I mean, nobody is forcing them to be here… right?
Few fines and they will either leave or comply.

That sounds technically impossible. Fact checking the whole internet?

This is why they all donated to Trump in hope that he will protect them from the bad EU.

Why should Google need to fact check search results? That is a ridiculous request.

I’ve ditched Google many years ago, just because I don’t like to be conformist. Now, I’m testing Startpage, previously I used Duckduckgo.

European alternatives, with more privacy and personaly better results most of the time (but not always).
