Fun side effect of terrible search engines that try to "correct" what you search for...

I found the movie "Master of the Universe" available for streaming.

Not... "Masters of the Universe"

One has an 'S' in it, the other does not. Both made in 2026. One is the movie released in theaters, the other is Asylum slop made to typo squat.

Searching for Master of the Universe (even with quotes) produces "Masters of the Universe". I wanted to search for the slop one to see the trailer and see how bad it was or read reviews on it.

But nope. Took me writing out the Asylum director's name to finally force it.

So yay! Search engines deciding for you what they thought you meant, despite you being specific, obfuscates and protects typo squats. So much for "research and validate it before clicking".
