    Thanks for the HN treatment. As a followup piece, a Google response of this being "a bug". Followup story, my return rate for CC licensed images of "dog" went from 3 to 13. More than that, license info is not displayed (only linked), is frequently wrong, and photo credits often given to the site, not the creator of the image. https://cogdogblog.com/2022/10/google-cc-image-search-better-sad/ Try Openverse for much more accurate and plentiful results https://wordpress.org/openverse/.
