They are already displaying their own bias based regardless of what they think Goolge's bias is.
Damore was fired because he violated California labor law. But the post continues with lines like:
> Now, I’m not a conspiracy theorist
...
> But it seems like they decided that there’s no way to algorithmically penalize certain sites — so instead they do it manually, behind the scenes, without telling anyone.
Without any evidence of this what-so-ever.
It's one thing to say "Google are not doing a good job of filtering out mis-information/commercialization without penalizing high quality information from smaller sites/institutions" it's another to say that this is a conspiracy from the "echo chamber bias" of their employees to suppress the speech of people who don't agree with them.

From Wikipedia[1] referring to a Guardian article: > The company fired Damore for violation of the company's code of conduct. Which is correct?
