Check out my results for some chinese download service called "Content Plaza" for example:
Google:
Yandex:
Like, 2? On the 'entire' internet? 2? Right...
Was Yandex respecting your query there?
Added quotation marks for “terabox” as well, and it was fascinating across providers:
Yandex agreed with your Google search…
…but not mine:
DDG coming in with one result:
Startpage, just one result?!
…nope, not from the “mobile site”:

I even find it ridiculous how often first results litterally say underneath they did not contain your query...
But with terabox and "content plaza" it gives 2 results?
