I'm wondering how this censoring process you envision actually played out at Google. Like did an executive tell an underling to hide this information from the world? I'm genuinely curious.
I’m also curious what Google’s “political base” is, since they’re apparently getting final say on the search results. I keep getting Pinterest on my image searches and maybe the political base can help.
Hiding a news story like this specific example? No, I do not believe Google did that. Not for a second. That is absurd.
How they handle possible spammers, people posting dangerous medical advice, etc is a bit different, no? I'm not letting them off the hook entirely, but this example is simply ridiculous. What benefit would they get from it, and at what risk? (i.e. disgruntled employee blows the whistle on their behavior)
