They're pretty old. I remember when Google added an option to block domains (the option you want) around 2011 and they were the first thing I removed from my results, along with Wikipedia mirrors.

After the option to block domains was removed around 2014-2015, I rarely came across those anymore, but it seems they're back...

There are extensions to permanently block sites from results.

Like: personal blocklist https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/personal-blocklist...

I know these exist and I could as well write uBO rules to hide unwanted search results, that's why I said non-hacky ;)
