The singular form of "data" isn't "anecdote".

If you search "news" on Google, the 2nd result is Fox News[1] (first being Google News). Half the suggested articles by Google on my phone are from Fox News, even though I've never clicked on any article from there. I do not use that to conclude that Google is politically biased.

It's generally poor form to direct link a Google search as a reference as you can never be sure if the results will be the same tomorrow or if the person clicking it will get personalized results that differ from those you get.


I agree with that too. That's how GP was providing "evidence" for their claims, however, so it seemed a fitting way to respond.
