The most important piece of the article:
> Questions have been raised about who funds the Google Transparency Project. The CfA declined to say, and this prompted suspicion that it is bankrolled by rival media and internet companies keen to check the company’s power.
If you're going to be a transparency-watchdog, it helps that your own organization remains transparent as well.
- rpgmaker 10y agoThis is a very bad attempt at deflecting attention from the the very tight (and troublesome) relationship Google has with USG and this is very well documented by now. That this specific company isn't very transparent doesn't take anything away from this troublesome fact. So no, that's not the most important piece of the article at all.
