Study says Google may control the United States can easily affect the general

  Says Google is a technology giant, which no one can deny that. But its influence is large enough to manipulate the next presidential election is going, or even decide who is the next President, it sounds weird. Smart voice O2O might go in this direction in

  Although Google has stressed that he "don't be evil" company values, however don't be evil does not mean that there is no capacity for evil.

  United States research and technology societies, senior research psychologist Robert Epstein on the Politico Web site points out that Google has actually have the ability to manipulate the presidential election next year. More importantly, it can be highly confidential-perhaps United States citizens don't realize that Google is influencing their decision.

  The key to all this is that Google can control the search rankings. In short, it can determine a story's ranking, and "subtle" to influence the choice of Internet users.

  "Google's search algorithms can easily affect the voting preference of centrist voters, from a demographic point of view, between 20% to 80% it affect voter. "

  Epstein noted that in United States history, about half of the presidential elections is to 7.6% following a narrow win, win the 2012 election advantage is only 3.9%, this within Google's control.

  Research team in the lab and tried online, confirmed the search results to boost voter support for a particular candidate, impact could range between 37% and 63%.

  In this regard, that's what Google says, "is the cornerstone of Google search provides relevant search results, if we change the principles of Justice, then it will undermine public confidence in the company and Google search. "

  Although Google has this ability, but the Government did not correspond to the measures. And, worst of all, even if this happens, also could not be confirmed. Current law is not enough to improve the mechanisms in support of technology companies to manipulate the electorate views the relationship between the two, make small changes in algorithm and technology companies and, indeed, very hard to find.

  In fact in addition to Google and other technology companies can also affect Internet users vote to. Facebook and I've published in the global process of election electronic voting buttons, and little change in social networking, can affect the result of voting.

  Although Google does not really let users to defect in this way, but the Government must be aware of the critical situation, and the measures to be taken. Otherwise, Granville technology heavyweights, are likely to change United States the outcome of the election, or even global political trends.
