“australia would be better off without Google. As will every country” — its not so black and white. There is no other search engine technology that gives you the results google does now
Things change.

True. How else can you get pages of results carefully biased to sponge away our existence and that of other thought dissenting from leftist orthodoxy?
I find that I get the same results with Bing. Haven’t used Google in years
You are kidding right?
Search results are pretty much the same across different search engines.
The Chinese use Baidu and I don't see them losing anything .
These days, search engines are like cars, pretty much a commodity. I am sure Bing will be very happy for Google ton get out of Australia so Bing can clean up.
Google is politically compromised.
It is absolutely necessary that competition for Google be developed.
Google has handed Australia a great opportunity.
Google has put their fat finger on the scale of political discourse with their censorship and shadow-censorship policies.
That makes them a dangerous enemy of free people (and slaves) everywhere.
An enemy of Google is a friend of liberty (at least for that moment).
