This is an interesting comment because we readily anthropomorphise every entity and fail to see Google as an umbrella for a group of people that may make decisions in terms of a democratic or autocratic means depending on context.
In this instance "The Google" has expressed "an agenda".
I disagree that individuals might have been trying to wrong society but unfortunately it's the measurable results and direction of the company as a whole that exhibits the agenda and in this instance it's quite a blow to the ability for society to record a factual account of history so it can learn from its mistakes.
This seems to be the case for the latest tech. in general, suddenly upending the taxi industry, forcing small businesses to pay the gig-culture delivery tax, AI mass generating content and creating an imbalance in creative output.
We have a fun decade ahead...
