Problem

Google powered data is weak/incomplete in China. Criticism and controversies - Google - Wikipedia:

all Google services except for Chinese Google Maps are blocked from access within mainland China without the aid of virtual private networks, proxy servers, or other similar technologies.

Description

Add Baidu data

TimidRobot commented 1 year ago

Unfortunately Baidu data does not appear to be accessible:

c# - Baidu web search engine API - Stack Overflow
- One comment suggests SerpApi, but I expect their Free plan (SerpApi: Plans and Pricing) is too restricted (100 searches / month) to be useful
