Maybe they'd make a lot of money if people paid Google to influence an election in some direction. Or if not money, then regulatory or legislative relief.
- tired_man 11y agoI think Google is very interested in who might win. If for no other reason that for future planning of products and services. Some candidates may be more favourable than others regarding certain issues. Whether it's their influence or cash, either way would be buying the candidate. Providing under the table services for preferential treat by authorities is also well-engrained in most countries. Sad, but factual.
