Yet it would be interesting to hear, why this shocks you so much. :)
Is it because you don't think search engines are a service worth paying for or because Google, Bing, DDG … are free?
I'm not sure if this is really feasible (even though I'd be happy to see a working libre search engine). The problem I see is that a search engine is incredibly expensive to run, which makes it hard to maintain servers on a donation model.
