The Google Press Center Zeitgeist showcases the most popular search terms… but there seems to be something missing from the list. Now I might be mistaken, but I think it is pretty safe to assume that there are a lot of people out there using Google to find pornography. I remember I read a website that reported 40% of all searches on Google were for adult websites (unfortunately, I cannot seem to find that page again). I would have thought at least one or two of the top Google terms would have been something adult-esque.
Now don’t get me wrong. I honestly do not care if the top search term is sex or not. I do, however, care if companies are providing misinformation. I guess I have two questions.
- Are the figures presnted to us on the Google Zeitgeist accurate?
- If not, why is Google censoring / lying to us?
I’m interested to hear what you think. Am I completely off my rocker, or is there something missing from Google’s reports?
