"You almost can’t overstate how dominant Google is in search. Most studies put Google at about 90 percent of the global search market, and that number has been steadily climbing for 20 years. Google is the default search engine in almost every browser, on almost every device. We don’t search the internet; we Google it. Bing and Yahoo are the second and third largest players, and when was the last time you Binged or Yahooed anything? "

what the heck year was this written. Is yahoo even still in business?

from a quick Yahoo search:

As of March 2023, online search engine Bing accounted for 8.23 percent of the global desktop search market, while market leader Google had a share of around 85.53 percent. Meanwhile, Yahoo's market share was 2.44 percent.
