> how hard would it really be to organize a single day google search boycott across the web

- DDG and probably even Bing would go under.

- It's just a slap on the wrist for Google.

I think a better idea is to create a distributed, federated crawler and search engine that does not depend on a central point of failure.

Alternatively, we could still use Google for long-tail, technical searches and use a different one for important queries such as politics and social.
