Senators Demand Answers from Google on Trump Censorship
News summary

U.S. Senator Roger Marshall of Kansas has initiated an investigation into Google following accusations of censorship regarding its autocomplete feature, which allegedly omitted results related to the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump. This controversy arose after users noted that typing 'assassination attempt on' did not suggest Trump, leading to claims of bias against conservative viewpoints. Marshall's letter to Google CEO Sundar Pichai characterized the actions as election interference and demanded accountability, citing a broader pattern of Big Tech's influence in politics. Google responded, stating that its systems have protections against autocomplete predictions associated with political violence and that no manual action was taken regarding the omission. The tech giant acknowledged that its autocomplete feature is under improvement amidst the backlash. Prominent conservatives, including Donald Trump Jr. and Senator Ted Cruz, have echoed concerns about Google's role in potentially manipulating information.
