The search cost wasn’t that high - the cost with immense magnitude is reading, absorbing the information and then acting on it. Also this bozo fails to realise once we are on this path, we go down the path to a hyper centralised internet with an inevitable blocking of vpns.

Asking Google (if you're not just reading its own AI overview) requires reading through sources which may be better or more poorly written and more or less reliable.
