Am I an isolated case or this spam phenomena is taking place for you too?

I mean obviously that depends on what you search for, if I search for topological donut none of the hits on the first page redirect, there aren't even any shopping sites on first page.

I also am not sure I trust the exactness of your numbers, how have you tested this?

I experimented it too… to the point that I thought it was a bug. Now I’m curious, does anybody have the same problem?
