Let us assume it does skew search results. Two things we also know are true: * Google is a publicly-owned corporation. They have every right, as they own the platform, to skew it as they see fit. They aren't supposed to be unbiased, if you wanted that you'd have to have a completely open-source search engine to make this argument credible. * Just because they own the lion's share of the search market does not mean you have to use them. Don't like Google? Use DuckDuckGo. Use Bing. Use AskJeeves! Are people using Google at gunpoint? Certainly not. This whole things feels weak - isn't it obvious that Google is owned by a corporation with it's own self-interest agenda, and by using that service, you are bound to the skew it may or may not put in it's searches / ads / everything?
