They got rid of country specific sites like google.co.uk as said they could work out what people wanted with one size fits all .com Now as an expat when trying to do Christmas shopping for family in UK from abroad using UK shopping results you no longer can. If you ask Gemini who came up with such an idea it will shut you down for questioning Google policies. They are taking the apple approach of telling the user what they need and force them to take or leave it. So I left using Google.
