I have officially abandoned Google in favor of DuckDuckGo. I'm also rejecting Bing.
There's something wrong with both Google and Bing. It has become increasingly difficult with both of them, especially Google, to obtain useful results. Somehow or other they have tweaked their search algorithms in such a way, that the most useful and natural results don't come up right away, if at all.
Many times in searching with Google, I would try in vain to reach basic search targets. This is definitely true for politically tinged searches. But it's also true for seemingly neutral searches. For example, I Googled "Healthfirst Medicare Advantage" and literally got no useful results. Either it gave me a dead link or a variety of other companies. Bing was hardly any better. But with DuckDuckGo I got many spot on results.
It appears that Google, and I'm afraid Bing as well, have become corrupt. They seem to be operating on behalf of special interests, both political and financial.
Trump is right: More than Facebook & Twitter, Google threatens democracy, online freedom
Here's The Evidence That Google's Search Results Are Horribly Biased
