The head of Google *Search right now is the same guy that was head of yahoo search when it was dying. To put all of this in perspective.

That argument it's fallacious and reductionist, I'm not denying the situation it's messed up, but objectively speaking we all have 0 idea about who's making what decisions and how this google search shitstorm was caused

I dislike the entire article. Of course google search still works just fine. Claiming otherwise is only possible by magnifying a small, admittedly disfunctioning part of google search.
