I think Google doesn't care because it helps then and other corporations (and extremely wealthy individuals) gaslight us quicker and easier. We're being groomed.

2016 US presidential election should be studied. It showed that a "Super Power" could be manipulated into voting for a enemy asset.
In the 80's the USSR/Russia was always the enemy. We had a president in the white house say he trusted them more then his own intelligence department. Disinformation and good ol racism works when done correctly.
