Social media users have named Google a “compromised platform” after Elon Musk revealed an unusual feature about the search engine
Social media users have named Google a “compromised platform” after Elon Musk revealed an unusual feature. A screenshot of a “pro-tip” given a person, and shared by Musk, reads, “If you have to do a Google search, use “before:2023″ at the beginning of your search string. You get a completely different (and IMO much more usable) set of results. The web has died.”
Another person wrote about this comment, “Someone recently posted a hot tip about adding “before:2023” to Google web searches and I forget who it was but wow what a huge difference it makes. So thank you to whoever that was. It gets rid of so much AI-generated SEO cr**.”
Sharing the screenshots, Musk captioned the post, “It’s a real problem!”
