This puts it in enough perspective for me to ask: why doesn’t a university create a public/open source search index? Seems like a way to get a ton of attention.
Moreover, archive.org has all the data and data storage capabilities many times over. What prevents them from creating an open source search engine?

Or the Library of Congress, if it had the right appropriations. Google itself started with an NSF grant to explore the future of libraries.
