The dangers of a monopoly. No matter how bad Google gets people will still use it because, in many people's minds, there is no other search engine.

What are those? DDG, Bing, Ecosia etc. are all not really better than Google. I haven‘t tried Kagi yet, mostly because it costs money.

You can actually try kagi for free. 100 searches/month should be enough for you to decide if it's worth the money to you.
