No of course not. My point is that google will change things as they did in the past. The way google snippet works is simple, they scan the data and sum it up.

I searched multiple results right now. "bill gates net worth" data was taken from Wikipedia and CNW didn't even exist on the first page.
"Beyonce net worth" showed a detailed snippet for businessinsider, and second link was CNW. Same for Eminem, 210M from groovewallet, and second result was CNW.
I just couldn't find what CNW is complaining about.
- huffmsa 6y agoAnd the wikipedia page cites https://www.forbes.com/profile/bill-gates/?list=billionaires#46f7f1c3689f https://www.forbes.com/profile/bill-gates/?list=billionaires... As the source for Bill Gates' net worth. Why can a free, community edited website successfully attribute it's sources but a trillion dollar company cannot?
- system2 6y agoCan you or anyone show me an example? I searched over ten celebrities and only found CNW as either 2nd or 3rd result. All snippets were giving full details to the sites.
- huffmsa 6y agoCNW's statement was about 2012 to the present. The damage is done. I distinctly remember even recently that Google wouldn't provide attribution in the snippet. Though now, it sure seems like the #1 results for most of my "{celebrity} net worth" queries are AMP (AKA Google approved™) pages.
