tl;dr: Summary not available
HN Discussion:
  • ↑Google conflates GenAI with traditional ML, preventing meaningful opt-out across products
  • ↓Article is clickbait; this is actually opt-in control for schools, not forced rejection
  • ↑Users should abandon Google for alternatives like Kagi or DuckDuckGo
  • ~AI summaries may actually be more reliable than the degraded top search results
  • ↑Evidence that blocking Google-Extended already causes sites to disappear from search
