We trusted Google and other companies to always help us navigate all of this information. But my trust has been shaken and largely broken.

It's not a bad thing that I will increasingly reach for a book rather than search, or go to a site I know ... but I'm thinking about the wider impact of this and it seems like a step backwards.
