Over the past few years I’ve felt like Google itself is a spam attack.



This. Google ads are spam, Google search is spam, Gmail is spam, YouTube is spam...

Google gets their money. They don't care about anything else.


Baby: bath water.

You are playing up the noise and playing down the signal. Search, Gmail, and YouTube are far from spam. There are obviously many scenarios/URLs that contain spam, but all 3 of those products are overwhelmingly useful.
