A related thing that bugs me is how many scam search results come up and are prioritised if you search for "uk eta" or similar. On google for me the real site is sandwiched in positon 4 after 3 and before 2 additional paid sponsored scam sites each with large block sections in the search results.

Scammers pay the the same good money for advertising space as legitimate companies. Google can profit from it, so there's no incentive to kick bad actors of their advertising platform.

Google makes money from the scam sites, but not from the government.

Much the same with the US ESTA requirement.

I miss the good old green Visa Waiver forms that we had to illegibly scribble on during the flight over :)
