Google has faced criticism after users discovered that searches for “Donald Trump” were displaying results related to “Kamala Harris.” This issue raised concerns about potential search engine bias and interference, especially as the 2024 presidential race heats up.
According to the company, the incidents are nothing more than technical glitches, but many are now accusing the tech giant of election interference in the 2024 U.S. Presidential election.
Additionally, it was reported that Google employees have collectively donated millions of dollars to Kamala Harris’s campaign, further fueling accusations of partiality.
The tech giant also faced backlash for its autocomplete feature, which omitted references to a recent failed assassination attempt on Trump. Critics argue that this omission exemplifies a pattern of biased information filtering .
Google has denied intentional manipulation, attributing these anomalies to ongoing system updates and asserting their commitment to unbiased search results. However, public trust remains strained as the company works to address these concerns.
