&udm=14 is a temporary fix for those who still feel the need to use Google's search.

Paid search isn't the solution, as evidenced by the untrustworthiness of the CEO of Kagi search.

What I would like to see is a non-profit search.

Google wanted to organize all the world's information to make it useful. Sounds like a great idea destroyed by a profit motive getting in the middle. Try the same idea without the profit motive and you'll probably end up creating something people will defend endlessly, like Wikipedia.

What if your search engine asked you for a five dollar donation, once a year, the way Wikipedia does?

Search engines should be non-profit, honestly, they should be an extension of Public Libraries.
