- acituan 5y agoThat depends how you draw the lines around the selfhood of Google. Did 2004 Google have the same intentions as 2021 Google? Organizing information and making it useful sounds altruistically anti-misinformation. And maybe the search engine of the past was a net good against misinformation. And then maybe the ship attracted folks with less than ideal intentions over time, making your premise more and more true. Maybe 2031 Google will be much worse.
