   [2/2] … error, and also for referring to services as "products" (thus blurring an important distinction). I have had no access to Google Search for many years, aside from a period of time when I could access it via a LibreX proxy. That is because it depends on nonfree JavaScript code, which I won't trust. I recommend people ditch Google Search and switch to other engines such as duckduckgo.com.

     For anyone who insists on terrible results, there is the https://www.startpage.com/ frontend site that works without JavaScript (for now).
     
     Searx and YaCl are looking like the few remaining options for decent search results.
