Google is excelling again - as the whole "uncensored" Big-Tech IT now.

The short summary is that for nearly a year, Google was hiding Proton Mail from search results for queries such as ‘secure email’ and ‘encrypted email’. This was highly suspicious because Proton Mail has long been the world’s largest encrypted email provider.

Google has become an awful company. I'm in the process of degoogling but it's not easy given all the monopolies they have created

My one holdover is YouTube. There's just no good replacement for it.

Use piped or invidious instead perhaps.

Alternately, disenshittify YouTube using addons like DeArrow, Sponsor Block and uBlock origin.

Is piped or invidious working for you?

The popular servers are down. Google put some kind of limit on them. I'm going to guess bandwidth limit.

I search “invidious instances” and pick some from the list - one of them will work.
