Google Faces Allegations of Autocomplete Censorship

Elon Musk and other conservative figures have criticized Google for allegedly censoring autocomplete suggestions related to the recent assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump. Screenshots shared on social media showed that typing 'assassination attempt on Trump' did not yield autocomplete results, unlike similar searches for other historical figures. Google has denied any manual interference and explained that their systems have protections against autocomplete predictions associated with political violence. Despite this, Musk and others have accused Google of bias and attempting to influence the upcoming 2024 presidential election. Google has acknowledged technical anomalies and stated they are working on improvements to their autocomplete feature.
