The U.S. Department of Justice's 10-week antitrust trial against Google is underway, and it has the potential to spell big trouble for the Mountain View tech giant. The Justice Department, along with several individual states, claim that Google was able to reach its status as the dominant company in search through anti-competitive means. Now, the company has reached monopoly status and everything needs to be investigated.

Google is a shell of its former glory.

I won't cry if they get trust busted. Death by enshitifacation, imo.

Amazon should be next, they're fucking worse. If your search Amazon, the same keywords, thru different means you get different results.

Type in "5w30 5L" in the app =set1 Do the same in Firefox = set2. Type in sort by price low to high and watch 80% of the results disappear. What the actual fuck.

Reddit is the same way now too. Go there in Firefox. Ok, titties in my face, everytime, first thing. Switch to desktop mode, oh look at that, back to normal.

Everything enshitified.

I now go as long as possible without spending a dime, out of spite for the whole fucking system. Anti-consumer. Buying used if I buy at all.
