Google Translate Lists ‘Police Officer’ as the Primary Definition of ‘Demon’

Google Translate, the tech giant’s translation app, listed “a police officer” as the primary definition of “demon.” The secondary definition of demon, according to the Masters of the Universe in Silicon Valley, is “an evil spirit or devil.” The web giant removed the definitions altogether after Breitbart News requested comment on the company’s strange definition.

Users on reddit’s /r/Conspiracy subreddit were the first to recently notice that when the term “demon” was typed into Google’s Translate system, the first definition that the site returns is “a police officer.” Although the Internet giant removed the definitions after a Breitbart News request for comment, a screenshot of the definition can be seen below:

Translated to/from what language?

Translate and define are not the same things.

Not surprising at a company that manipulates search strings to produce a politically correct set of results.

Demon is in the list of synonyms, not the actual definition . Not a big deal
