I’m seeing a lot of articles putting the rate at 5%. Google is just so much worse than it used to be…
That 5% figure is 3 years old, and one report from 2018 had the figure at 8.7% so it appears to be dropping. Based on the political climate in the US that number is unlikely to my rise anytime soon.
