Photos Of US President Appear ON Google When A User Searches For Word "Idiot"

Google's CEO Pichai explained why photos of United States President Donald Trump surface on the search engine when a user searches for the word 'idiot'. Speaking in front of the House Judiciary Committee, he elaborated that company does not manually intervene in search results and that "search results are based on crawling the content of web pages". "We provide search today for any time you type in a keyword. We, as a Google, have gone out and crawled stored copies of billions of their pages in our index, we take the keyword and match it against the pages and rank them based on over 200 signals." Pichai maintained. Things like relevance, freshness, popularity, how other people are using it. And based on that, you know, at any time, we try to find the best results for that query, he added. The House committee's session was held to discuss whether the search engine's results were politically slanted. It has also been revealed that the 'idiot' search result page was due to third parties' "Google bombing" the president. A similar incident was reported during the presidency of George W Bush. In the mid-2000, Bush's photo popped up whenever some one searched for " miserable failure".
