“Ad based search engines make almost $300 a year off their users.
Google generated $76 billion in US ad revenue in 2023. Google had 274 million unique visitors in the US as of February 2023.

That means there is someone, somewhere, a third party and a complete stranger, an advertiser, paying $23 per month for your searches.”
