The issue is that the vast majority of people would prefer 2, and would be fine with Google's reasonable excuse that it it just reflective of the patterns in data on the internet. But the media would prefer 1, and if Google chooses 2 they will have to endure an endless stream of borderline libelous hit pieces coming up with ever more convoluted new exmples of their "racism."
- andybak 3y ago"Most" as in 51%? 99%? Can you give any justification for your estimate? How does it change across demographics? In any case - I don't think it's an overwhelming majority - especially if you apply some subtlety to how you define "want". What people say they want isn't always the same as what outcomes they would really want if given a omniscient oracle. I also think that saying only the "media" wants the alternative is an oversimplification.
