Things like this will always happen and even if they are only up for a few seconds someone will see it and get a screenshot. Then it will be all over the net. So policing of it becomes very difficult without vetting every search

As for me I do not pay much attention to Google Trends. It is much important what is inside of this powerful search engine than what is displayed outside.

I don’t know if I agree that Google should control these results more… I mean, Google trends is meant to be objective and offer accurate information.. Where do you draw the line on the srt of censorship you’re suggesting?

^ agreed. everyone’s making a big fuss about this, when really the best way to get trolls to stop trolling is to ignore them. and really if they hire someone to monitor the trends, they’d have to have someone on watch 24/7 because these things hardly take up an hour to happen. one lunch break and BAM, snickersnee is at the top of the chart.

Why is this a big deal? Why is this news at all? Why are people upset about this anyway? The purpose of google trends is to find and display serch trends, not to protect people from “offencive” content. It would be irrisponsible for google to lie about the information they gather just because some kids at 4chan.org are playing a joke.

Doesn't surprise me at all. Google does a great job policing everyone else but itself. Still, you'd have thought SOMEONE there would have caught this. Pavlicko's last blog post..Evidence that Spamming Google Improves Ranking

The technical police is seen to be required and some extra measures to resist such a band.

wow y’all are dumb. this is no hack. no single person is capable of doing any of it. it’s a community of at least a couple thousand people or more that band together for a cause. usually, hilarity ensues. I’m no racist, but that KFC bit was pretty funny…

Even if Google employed more resources to monitoring exceptions like the ones we have seen, where would you draw the line on acceptable content. Some thing clearly are, others may be borderline, leading to complaints that Google was manipulating the results.

Wow. Clearly their algorithm needs to be updated on this one. For example, they already filter out 'bad words'. Why can't they filter out unrecognized symbols. This really shouldn't be happening. Shirley's last blog post..Google Maps’ Street View Helps Fight Crime!

Google really needs to put more security measures in place that search terms like those don't continue to be shown. Patrick's last blog post..Pays to Live Green Up for 6 Months!!!
