Google Evil Unicorn

I spotted this interesting statement from Google's John Mueller on Twitter the other day. He said "In my 15 years at Google, I haven't run across a site whose ranking is secretly being controlled by outsiders. I couldn't imagine that being the case."

This was in response to a post on Twitter about Google being evil, here are those tweets:

I am not sure why but I found the response interesting and wanted to share it.

Do you know any evil outsiders controlling Google search rankings?

Forum discussion at Twitter.
