Holocaust-eschewing Realms Purged As Google Modifies Its Algorithms [VIDEO]
The Holocaust continues to be a controversial issue. Even in the digital age, the reality of the Nazi-caused horrors is being disputed.
Just recently, search engine giant Google is embroiled in yet another strife as reports of data denying the unfortunate event kept popping up on its domain. Inquiries about the Jewish tragedy have resulted in write-ups promoted by racist groups including a white supremacist site which refuted that the Holocaust ever happened.
In line with this, the California-based tech company has introduced adjustments to its search setting involving the catastrophic circumstance. The approach has been pursued after the organization endured weeks of scrutiny. The technical fixture has now eliminated any information that renounced the Holocaust.
According to Google, enhancements in the company's algorithms have been altered. The search procedures will now focus on plausible content.
A representative from the search engine group has pointed out that the internet has trouble in bringing out results that will answer inquiries. The fix has involved tweaking non-authoritative data.
Although adjustments have already been made, it remains uncertain if the changes will be sustained. Considering that Google has reiterated that it does not throw information except during cases when web operating procedures are violated.
A domain labeled as "Stormfront" has initially declared that the genocide of six million Jews had never taken place. The situation has been further exasperated when a neo-Nazi site bannered a headline about the top ten reasons why the Holocaust didn't happen.
Since Google's response has taken a considerable period, the tech giant has reiterated that it has been weighing the appropriate response to the controversy.
Although hate data has surfaced on the search engine's domain, it does not mean that Google supports such ideas or concepts.
Later during the week, a Google spokesperson has announced that the company has been wistful about the continued existence of hate slogans or campaigns.
The controversy has been on the heels of criticisms involving fake news that tech groups have apparently proliferated.
