The original purpose of Google, the world’s most intrusive search engine,
was to assemble all of human knowledge and make it accessible to everybody
– for profit.
Recently, a research paper by Google staff used a database grandly dubbed
the “Knowledge Vault” as the basis for a claim that “we were … able to
reliably predict the trustworthiness of 119 million web pages and 5.6
million websites.”
Yeah, right. Google has proven so unreliable that I, for one, no longer
trust it. Here are just some of the reasons why.
Let’s go back to the beginning of Google. The word itself is actually an
error. The word the infant geeks who founded Google were looking for was “
Googol,” the mathematicians’ term for a 1 followed by 100 zeroes – a very
large number. And have they corrected their mistake? No.
Google execs like to claim the corporation was founded in a garage. No, it
wasn’t. The truth is, it was founded in a swank suburban villa on a leafy
street. There was a garage attached, and the geeks set up a couple of old
computers in there and typically spent one day a month there so that they
could later claim Google was just another trad Silicon-valley start-up.
When Google isn’t coloring its own facts, where does it get them from? One
place, according to the corporation is – of all things – Wikipedia, the
world’s least trustworthy database, known among scholars as “the
encyclopedia that any idiot can edit but only a cretin would credit.”
