No. People are typing and the autocomplete is offering them possibilities so they could, hopefully, type less. People aren’t looking for suggestions.

So it's a "no" then, huh?

1.4 trillion Google searches and discostu is here to speak for all of them.

I've seen people use autocomplete to look for search suggestions.

Your claim is "dumb".

What do you expect?

41.9% (52,000) of Google’s permanent workforce are Indian,
Almost 100% of its contractors are Indian (130,000)
It’s CEO is Indian

It’s not an American company. Treat it as a foreign agent.

Go to Google. Type any number followed the “new cases” do it 20 times with different numbers. Every time there will a related article to covid 19. Try it 50 times. Same result.

Do you actually know anyone that has gone to google to look for random capitalist things to search for? No of course not. Only time you’re looking for any kind of search suggestions is cause you don’t know how to spell one of the words. Nobody is going “capitalism... s oh slavery yeah let’s look at that”. And you know that.

That’s because there’s been lots and lots and lots of articles in the last 6 months with the number of new cases by city, zip, state, country, region and planet. So yeah, guess what’s gonna come up. Really, what else should be coming up?

Your setting up a straw man fallacy.

No, I've never seen anybody search for suggestions that are specifically associated with the word capitalist.

But I have seen people search for suggestions that are associated with other words.

Apparently, for you that's the case. But you don't speak for the intentions of all the people who have searched with Google 1.4 trillion times.

As I've said, that's not the case for other people that I've seen.

I am not setting up a strawman. You’re living in one.

If they aren’t searching for suggestions then what are they getting?

You keep backing up and backing up and backing up. If it’s not a force, or a suggestion, then what it is? Again what would they accomplish by jacking up their own autocomplete? BE SPECIFIC. all you’ve got is vague BS that you then immediately say you didn’t say.

Time to get back to reality. And reality is autocomplete is filled with what people search for. PERIOD. Messing with it would gain google nothing. PERIOD. Insisting on anything else is just conspiracy nonsense. PERIOD.

Google is bought and paid for by CIA and co. DARPA spawned Facebook, Twitter, and Google during the years when the CIA ran the US unimpeded.

People like Zuckerberg are just fronts for CIA technology paid for by American taxpayer dollars under the DARPA program.

Google perfects citizen surveillance in China for use in the US.

I read your full sentences. And then you’re next post saying that’s not what you said.

WHAT ARE THEY TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH?

How ironic that the companies and people who have benefited most from capitalism are the ones hell bent on destroying it.

Well then you have a reading comprehension problem.

I said that "I've never seen anybody search for suggestions that are specifically associated with the word capitalist."

I did said that "I have seen people search for suggestions that are associated with other words".

What don't you comprehend?

“Maybe you should type those into google, start spawning them up. What a gigantic waste of time. Read a book or something.”

Whooops! Seems to have hit this guy kinda close to home.

I comprehend that you’re erecting a strawman. “Other words”, which other words? You don’t say. Biased results? You don’t say. What would google be accomplishing? YOU STILL DON’T SAY.

The facts are in. You can’t be bothered to present any. This conspiracy theory is stupid. We are done. Have the last word. I don’t care.

Only in that as a QA engineer I’ve done ridiculously monotonous testing. But that was for money. I can’t imagine how freaking bored I’d have to be to voluntarily go through 52 autocompletes looking for some bias that would be utterly stupid and pointless for google to bother to code.
