This is very true. How many times have I clicked on a site met with ads so bad that the browser slows down, and after 10 seconds the page gets covered up by more and more crap and then a paywall shows up sometimes too. Now here's the thing - a competitor to Google might detect you clicking back and then pop-up a special set of controls near the search result that lets you say: "too many ads" or "paywall".
However, if such an engine were to start beating Google, I'm sure Google would implement it in their own way: automatically detect why you clicked back in such a short timespan.

- numpad0 5y agoGoogle already detects immediate returns and knock off that link for you. What's problematic to me is I tend to reactively mash back and forward and link just goes from it.
