    We regularly experiment with features that help shoppers identify trustworthy businesses online[…]

    I like that Google calls their users “shoppers” /s

      To be fair, I think there is a “shopping” tab when you perform a search through them.

        It’s the best example in my opinion, because it is full of fake versions of popular piracy sites because Google hides the originals.
        And it is the only site I know ddg shows certification every time.

      It’s not broken, for google. It does exactly what they want, which is to help them gather data and manipulate people.

      At work, we discussed this as a future issue in about 2000, when we saw it gaining major search share.
