Google Safe Search is only half the story. Another huge problem is Google's opaque and rash decisions about what sites throw up warnings in Chrome.
I once created a location-based file-transfer service called quack.space [0] very similar to Snapdrop, except several years before they existed. Unfortunately the idiot algorithms at Chrome blocked it, throwing up a big message that the site might contain malware. That was the end of it.
I had several thousand users at one point, thought that one day I might be able to monetize it with e.g. location based ads or some other such, but Google wiped that out in a heartbeat with a goddamn Chrome update.
People worry about AI getting smart enough to take over humans. I worry about the opposite. AI is too stupid today and is being put in charge of things that humans should be in charge of.
