Even when we do have the search tools, we have no assurance that the output of the tools is trustworthy and not biased towards whatever brings the most money to the toolmaker. And we have a lot of history with reasons to believe that our tools are not trustworthy. The software industry has shit its own bed and thoroughly lost all credibility. To the point where I have zero doubt that any new software is acting in its own best interests and not the user's.
