Why did Google omit Trump assassination attempt from searches?

 

[Twilight Hue]

Why did Google omit Trump assassination attempt from searches?

Because it's a left wing biased search engine. I don't even use Google anymore for my searches not that the search results are anywhere near accurate and useful.

I use Duck Duck Go.

 

[Revoltingest]

It might be considered election interference
if Google intended it, & if this would affect
anyone's vote.
Think both are true?
Nah.

You come in complaining, accusing, attacking and whining then call me Karen? lmfao

If you didn't want peoples opinions you shouldn't have asked for them.

 

[We Never Know]

If you didn't want peoples opinions you shouldn't have asked for them.

Oh c'mon you can do better than that.

Opinions on the stories, yes,
False accusation, no.

Do you know the difference? Seems not.

I wasn't accusing you of anything unless you are saying that you are one of the people making a mountain out of this ant hill.

I see. So when people posts thread of the latest things being said, they are making a mountain out of ant hills?

Holy hell K. There are a lot of mountains in this forum don't you reckon?

No, "Google attributed the situation to existing protections against autocomplete predictions associated with political violence, noting that “no manual action was taken” to suppress information about Trump."



Just something else for wingnuts to feed their urge for outrage. Now they're raging about autocomplete?

Weird!

Why did Google omit Trump assassination attempt from searches?

For the same reason that Harris Assasination does not autocomplete, references to Assasination are blocked and they had to rewrite the algorithm for the specific case.
At least that is what Google said and it makes sense. They did not actively omit it, it just wouldn't show up with any name.

Or it could be because there hasn't been a Harris assassination attempt.

No they aren't blocked anymore

It works as it should K.
