Should we blame all the counter algorithms that attempt to game the results towards certain content providers, or the growing base of shitty content designed to garner eyeballs versus having any substance?

Or should we blame Google because it's their page ranking these sites are trying to game?

Ultimately, it seems like an algorithmic arms race with both sides vying to maximise as/affiliate revenue at the expense of the human users.
