That's pretty bold for a really fucking useless search engine. The EU could just block it and redirect google.com to a gov run searxng instange and everyone in europe would be better off overniggt

It would have to be an EU run search engine, otherwise which government?

Nah I don't think the government should run a search engine

Who do you trust more, Google or the EU?

That's fine, but then who does the search engine?

You can do things decentralized, and if you look into it, the EU is happy to fund projects to create decentralized internet services. Case in point, Lemmy's primary funder is the EU.
