This is a false equivalence. Comparing Google to a municipal water system and other search engines to purchasing bottled water eliminates certain key features of the service, like water conditioning and infrastructure. I use DuckDuckGo and it is no where near the inconvenience implied by "dig a well".
- ipaddr 5y agoDigging a well would be creating your own search engine. You can pay someone to come in an drill that well for you that doesn't exist a paid search engine. Ddg would be like taking the water from a public fountain.
- Dah00n 5y agoMore like using the "free" fountain with a DDG logo on it with water being transferred from the nearby Microsoft fountain (but with a promise that they add their own magic sprinkly stuff to the water).
