google isn't a "search" engine.

google is a "make money for Alphabet shareholders" engine. When you use it, you will find whatever makes those shareholders the most money.

You can improve your chances of finding what you are looking for by finding alternatives to google. Start with DuckDuckGo and search on "alternative search engines". The results might surprise you.

It will probably surprise very few of the readers here at ElReg that Eric S. Raymond doesn't pay google/alphabet any money, so his Jargon File stuff rarely comes to the top of googles list. Here's a link that might help you:
