Tack “&udm=14” on to the end of a normal search, and you’ll be booted into the clean 10 blue links interface. While Google might not let you set this as a default, if you have a way to automatically edit the Google search URL, you can create your own defaults.
This won’t last long. It’s too public now. Google will find a way to kill it and force their AI on you as much as possible.
Google’s too smart for that. They know there’s a big backlash against AI in the tech savvy crowd and that it’s bleeding users to competitors. So they offer this escape valve that they know the techies will easily find and use, but which 99% of the population will never even look for. This way they can still push AI on almost everyone while at the same time retain as many disgruntled techies as they can.
Google kills its golden goose search engine and is thought here up be too smart to disable a workaround… I’m doubtful.
But it’s not a workaround. This Web-Filter is a function that Google offers by choice. It’s in the menu on the search page.
Why should they? The Web-Filter is a function that Google implemented themselves. It’s not a secret trick or something.
lol it’s just what happens when you click More -> Web which is something they just introduced like a week or two ago. I’m all for hating on tech giants, but comments like this go beyond cynicism/jadedness and go right to conspiracyville.
