I’m actively still using “google” to turn it into a common verb and make Alphabet lose the rights to the word.

Just use “search”; we don’t want to make a company name the new synonym for search otherwise we are stuck with that company when it gets evil

Honestly just “searched” is probably fine.

Googling. That’s how you invalidate a trademark.
