They figured out that they make much more money just pandering ads and lying how they are related to people's interests than they would make when actually providing an invaluable service to humankind. Now, instead of information, we are stuck with paid-for results and SEO-optimized keyword spammers that want a crumb of that cake. I think the free market calls this "innovation" or some shit.
