I miss when search engines would just tell you if they didn't find anything. Now it's "hmm, we removed some of your terms in order to show you lots and lots of results instead of none!"

The more I do quotes, the less I get nowadays. I have completely given up on Google search. It has been terribad. I use Startpage and DDG now.
