what I find annoying is when I google a word I want a definition for and a company with that name dominates the results.

Almost any word I bother to look up is first and foremost some bullshit bazinga techbro startup according to browser searches. I have to insist "dictionary" as part of the search to have a chance of not getting a bunch of startup shit peddled at me instead.

yeah it's always some stupid bullshit thing

I think that shit should be illegal. Like they should start arresting Google execs until they finally fix it so that googling a word without context doesn't assault you with information about some goddamn corporation using that word as their name

You can shorten that to "define WORD"
