Google exposed AGAIN for anti-Trump bias in its search results and news feed in latest Project Veritas whistleblower bombshell – NaturalNews.com - naturalnews.com/2019-07-28-goo

@Wetrix
FYI the article is a bit sensationalist, the engineer from the interview said himself that he had not seen it himself but that he knows the culture there and knows how the algorithms work and given the results it is very unlikely there isn't bias.

@mister_monster I will check this out.

Although it's not a secret that Google and Twitter are biased towards the left.

Especially jack Dorsey and Twitter.

@Wetrix
Yeah, the previous video on google in that channel I linked to actually exposes some stuff they're doing. There's no doubt that there is heavy political bias in tech in general, but especially the big companies. I don't have a source but I saw a statistical analysis of google searches that showed that it is statistically unlikely to the point of being practically impossible that there isn't bias being put into the search algorithm. I should've saved a link to that study.

@mister_monster as long as humans are involved in the process anywhere at anytime in something there will always be bias unfortunately.

@Wetrix Yeah I agree but i think that in our work we need to try to understand that there are different people in this world. It is bad enough to irresponsibly create tools with our biases in them, we have to try. What is going on in big tech right now though is intentional gaslighting of whole populations. It is malicious, even if those that do it think they're serving a higher, noble purpose.

@mister_monster oh for sure. It's basically ethnic fighting through the actions of words instead of swords.

There is nothing mankind has made that isn't full of bias. We'll never solve that problem until we eliminate ourselves from the equation.
