There's other ways to find websites, like HN and word-of-mouth; I wish people made more of an effort to create and maintain alternative indices of websites. Too many people have gotten used to googling things instead of bookmarks and other ways to find a site.

The problem is that, to get traffic to your site (i.e. have your speech heard), it doesn't help if you use these other ways to find websites. You need others to use these ways. And 99% of them won't. I'm all for advocating widespread change of these habits, but that's a society-wide effort, not something a single website can do, much less one de-listed by Google.
Oh yes word of mouth is a great way to learn new information in the age of a society that bases its communication interconnected technology. It's totally reasonable to tell someone to start up their own indexing service to solve the problem as well.
So your basic solution is people have to know something without knowing that they know something. How else can you bookmark something if you don't already know that it exists? I'm not sure how you cannot see the problem where a half a dozen companies have taken over your entire ability to find something in the modern world. Your glorious solution is go get the multi-million dollars of funding to build your own solution that does something different.
There are other search engines besides Google but go ahead start using those other search engine and you'll find most of them are the same captured type portal information of content that they deem acceptable rather than allowing an end user to have some default filters but also be able to remove those default filters if they want. To be honest to God joke of your entire post is that Yandex is probably the best search engine at this point for finding actual uncensored information.
Those same links that require prior knowledge to know about them because there is a coordinated efforts by indexers to block information they don't deem acceptable. Did I sum that up correctly or am I still missing something?
And if you bothered to read the original post the indexer was misclassifying them and then threatening them based upon a misclassification. I'm not sure what kind of world you want to live in but I'm very confident you're going to get that world and not be happy with it.
