Google engineers want to make ad-blocking (near) impossible

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
What about search engines? DDG and bing suck ass, google is the only of the three that returns results that actually remotely match what I type in.
DDG works great for me...? Like one out of fifty searches maybe I go "Hmm, bad results, let me try Google," but it almost always works as well as Google with less noise.
That used to be the case but now Google is giving me like a page worth of AI generated pages as a result that all have a different answer. DDG is absolutely useless for sites in my native language but for everything else it beats Google.
I can recommend qwant.com
I use search.brave.com, it works for me.
