Question 1. How often are you seeing that when you do a “search by image”?

Googling is feeding me that crap more and more often for images are that not only recent and in the news but also - cough - hot. Bad pun intended. Example…

Question 2. Is googling intentionally fucking up “search by image” to force people to use some fucking AI tool to “help” them instead?

If not - I don’t get it. Google surely knows at least dozens and dozens of important news sites that have it.

I’m on a very old desktop and VPN. I tested random images. I got the same error 404 error every time. I haven’t done a single unusual thing. I tried my real IP address and I learned it’s 404 too.
