We should avoid discussing the fact that the search engine is now hijacking my search to show me things it would prefer I have searched for?
You know what - I'd much rather just see the spam sites.
The spam sites are useful feedback that my search is either too generic, or there aren't many good hits.
Further, some of them aren't actually spam sites - I'm not afraid to click through 5 or even 6 pages of results, and I can usually visually distinguish obvious spam from content very quickly.
I can't do that if Google has removed my ability to actually filter the results to the relevant search terms, and just keeps showing me the freaking link to npm over and over again.
