The amount of ad links I have to scroll through to get to my actual search is just awful these days. Almost feels like the entire first page is ads and then the second page is just sketchy fucking backwoods sites that may or may not bukkake your computer with viruses

Oh yeah. Not to mention that it's no longer possible to do literal searches, to exclude certain words from a search, to require certain words in a search.... Useless.
