So here's my little data point on the much discussed enshitification of Google Search.

I just randomly wondered today if Roy Rogers and Tim Horton were ever at all involved in the still thriving franchises that bear their names.

So I want to Google this:
"Was Tim Horton involved in operating restaurants."

Google does shit-autocomplete and suggests this:

"Was Tim Horton involved in Roy Roger's death?"

That's only slightly less ridiculous than wondering if Julius Caesar caused my friend's cancer.

Google loves itself some QAnon. How did we get here?
