Is Google Gaming Your Search Results? - Android Q&A

Jayce talks about what the EU's legal attack on Google may mean for the search giant!

[Dean]

It's still really hard to get mad at Google for anything.
I mean, Google!

[grmmzOC]

I always look forward to Jayce videos. Always a interesting topic and his take on things are really progressive, forward thinking. Wouldn't mind a podcast from him.

Google is a search engine. They have the choice to put what they want on their engine. If people is not happy about this, they can use Bing.

It's not really monopolizing if people have other choices.

[PTYC]

But there's no one better than google

[tywilson]

It's more likely to me that people with bad content are upset their results are being buried. Thanks EU, but if I don't like my search results it's up to me to find another provider.

[Dashboard_Diaries_ASMR]

Lol. Theres a commercial for creating your own Website at the end but thanks to Google nobody can visit it.

[AceLuceroTech]

I already know what I'm looking for and I'm aware of the different avenues in finding information. How come we don't see the same uproar against Apple? Apple has a business model that is completely locked down. The mistake Google made was leaving their product wide open. They should have took the path Apple did and handled everything internally. The only thing Google is guilty of is letting numerous company's make billions of dollars off of their back.

[romahnae]

one phrase to sum it up; 'money!.... is the root of all evil.' even a billion dollars can't satisfy some human beings.

[BranePetkoski]

Sorry Jayce but you are wrong.

If you search "weather" in google it gives you weather results on top because you have google now and you are signed in .


If you search in incognito it gives you weather.com on top.



Let's see how yahoo search does the same thing.

If you search for "weather" in yahoo, yahoo weather card is on the top .

If you search in incognito yahoo weather is again on the top displaying weather forecast.



Yup, Google is manipulating with search results.

[darkheat]

They can't afford to piss Google off especially since Google account for over 90 percent of the Internet traffic

[kazip]

Its not google's fault because they own themeselves.

[AlexTheMary]

And, this is why I no longer use Google. I even unistalled if from my phone. I'm team Bing.

[MattyI]

How about we start an investigation into Apple at the same time ? Google is leading the way in development of all sorts of technology. Can we please stop with the "Tall Poppy Syndrome". Instead of dragging Google down, how about all these draggers start to
"raise themselves up" and do great stuff themselves. These old evil ways of thinking are over. Embrace the good things they've given free

[andrescadenzagarzav]

Google took down the Windows Phone YouTube app that was made my Microsoft and is refusing to make their own YouTube app on the phones and all windows devices. I don't know about you guys, but I call that a monopoly.

[MrInk]

Of course Google can show whatever results they want. It's a company that provides a service, and that service is whatever the company chooses it to be. Not necessarily what you want or need even if you use it.
Strange that Google has risen to the pedestal and it's not even considered a company anymore, seems like it's considered more like a public service? Which you people need to freaking understand that it most definitely is not.

[Lmix]

hey man, isn't it getting hard to say all the names of your brothers in Android in one breath? haha.

[sbn]

duck duck go is pretty awsome alternative

[iowaadventures]

Google is doing nothing wrong! If you do not like Google search use a different search engine. A company like Google should not be punished for being successful.

[karlosx]

If Google or any other company as big as Google is doing wrong, then i hope they get what they deserve... Isn't hard too see that Google might be doing something wrong, as many other big companies, all they care is profit...not us consumers.... Example: pharmaceutical companies, food companies...the list goes and goes...so, if there's something wrong, must be fixed to our benefit.

[wbclone]

Duh, Google makes its money, anyway it can.
