>I’m now regularly seeing search results bury political pages which seem to run counter bay area political views.
This has been a well known occurrence. I’m think about all those pictures of “Hillary Clinton is” [0] typed into each search engine and Google was polar opposite of all others.
I think one needs to be pretty obtuse to not see Google is “curating” results to fit an ideology.
Everyone should be mad at that even if they believe in the same things.
EDIT: Well... apparently some people don't believe me, so I just re-tested. "Hillary Clinton i" in four engines.
I couldn't use "Hillary Clinton is" because "for some reason" Google guessing completely stops working when you type "is" after her name - can someone find me another phrase besides "Hillary Clinton" that "breaks" the search fill when "is" gets added? No? Well.. That sure seems like Google is "curating" then.
