Poll: Google Censor Search SuggestionsAbout a month ago, we ran a poll asking should Google censor non-adult search suggestions? This was based on all the religion based controversy and political controversy. So I specifically asked our readers, should Google censor these search suggestions or not.

We received 113 responses, where about 75% said, no, Google should not censor these results. 23% said they should and the rest said "other." Here is the break down of the few other responses:

  • Should show only when safe search filter is off!
  • Doing what the big companies want is taking away free speech
  • They should censor what they choose, not what anyone tells them

So there you have it, a completely unscientific poll from our readers.
