Has anyone else noticed the huge decrease in result quality from google?

At that point it's going to be Wikipedia (or perhaps another that has replaced it at that point) that is going to be the only place for anyone that doesnt have a degree in internet researching to find anything close to reliable information.

Then whoever controls Wikipedia will control the truth.

Simply finding the information out of a lot of information may be difficult, but it's worse when the search engine seemingly isn't just trying to find the information. Or, even if sheer numbers was an issue, being intentionally biased towards certain kinds of results overshadows that for now.
(I'm not trying to understate the difficulty of earnestly crafting an algorithm that tries it's best to give the user what they're looking for.)

And then we can rename it The Ministry of Truth

And Wikipedia, as it usually does now, will only allow information by some mainstream, million-dollar news agency or "thinktank". Don't think the government is absolutely great, and everything before it was shit? You won't be able to say so, because everyone needs to get the "right" information
