Is a meme. Google would kill their business model if they did this. Their whole model is to collect data from user searches and then make money off it.
I'm pretty sure they get more money from people freely giving them data using a lot of their services (maps, search) than they'd get if they gatekept searching with a, subscription that people opted out of.
You're 100% right. Last I heard, Google makes about $300 per person every year from the data it collects on us.
… But I honestly think it's just a matter of time before the capitalist cook the golden goose and try to grab subscription bucks anyways.
that would be great actually
