A purported leak of 2,500 pages of internal documentation from Google sheds light on how Search, the most powerful arbiter of the internet, operates.

The leaked documents touch on topics like what kind of data Google collects and uses, which sites Google elevates for sensitive topics like elections, how Google handles small websites, and more. Some information in the documents appears to be in conflict with public statements by Google representatives, according to Fishkin and King.

    Because that paves a very easy path to corruption . No freaking way do i wanna live in a country where the government has absolute control over all information spread.

    Don’t get me wrong, fuck Google, but government control of the Internet just sounds worse
