Google personalises its results based on the user. It's probably has a history and you're already on a watchlist.

That's Instagram

That doesn't look like Google, more like Facebook?

I don't think it's dead Internet theory. But this is more dystopian in that private corporations are censoring our speech and searching based on their own criteria.

I find csam repulsive, but having a corporation or ai restrict unrelated content because their system construes an innocent search as potential bad is almost worst.

Maybe it's just me, but I don't think warning people they might expose themselves to csam meets the definition of "broke the internet". I bet if you replace "girl" with "woman" you'll get the expected results.
