You think it should be googles duty to promote bad publications by means of the algorithm it generated?



It should be their duty to be transparent about the matter.


And how to you propose this be done?

Google has to order its results somehow. How do you propose they order them?


That is not the issue. There is a claim that Google manually intervened to DEmote the "bad publication".
