I agree. This is the problem that Google has. A big chunk of the websites are seo spam, fake support scams, and other nasty or untuneful sites. And Google has to find the few useful ones. Some people ask to not use pagerank[1] and just show all the results in random order, but in that case you would get a irrelevant list.
I’m sure the AOL walled garden had much higher quality content than the internet at large.
