Tuesday, the CEO of Google, Sundar Pichai, was called to testify before the U.S. Committee of the House of Representatives of the Judicial Power, after it was discovered that by typing the word ‘idiot’ there appears a photo of Donald Trump, president of the United States.
This controversy was announced several months ago, when various media reported the incident.
In this regard, the congresswoman of the Democratic Party Zoe Lofgren, asked the Google manager to give the details of how the search engine works, those in search of possible manipulation of results.
“We provide the search today for any time you type a keyword, we, like Google, have dragged and stored copies of millions of web pages at our start. We take the keyword and compare it with other web pages and rank them based on more than 200 signals, things like importance, freshness, popularity, how other people are using it, “explained Sundar Pichai.
