I have been saying all along that Google is an enemy of our democracy and government needs to step in to investigate and punish this company.
An interesting read:

Google's success originated in one simple insight from its founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin. They realized in the late 1990s that the sprawling, chaotic mass of material that was cascading onto the world wide web could be tamed by ranking search results according to their popularity.

They haven't looked back, making millions from online advertising and embracing some of the most challenging new ideas in the world of technology.
