    I hate that Google no longer allows literal strings. They keep removing features from their “core” product… You can put something in quotes now, and it will still substitute it with other stuff, including what it thinks are “corrected” or “other” spellings, which are often completely different from what you are actually searching for.

      If I remember correctly, it all began when they wanted Google+ to become a literal name, so the operators had to go. Shame. Could have brought them back when they pulled the plug on Google+.
