Especially for image searches. I am sick and tired of seeing that ““art”” in every single search, and the only real alternative is to exclusively browse trustworthy sites. I’ve tried to check for extensions myself but all I can find are extensions that use AI to do something, none that block it in any way.
Does anyone have a recommendation?

iNaturalist released their automated species identification tool in 2017. It’s not entirely clear since XKCDs aren’t datestamped, but going by archive.org the page has been indexed since at least 2014. Assuming archive.org indexed it shortly after it was posted, iNaturalist got the research done two years ahead of schedule!
