Did you see that Wired story that claimed that Google was rewriting search queries to improve monetization? Wired has retracted the story.

Original story replaced with editor’s note here: https://www.wired.com/story/google-antitrust-lawsuit-search-results/

@jerry I know I am already primed to distrust Google, so I read that story and thought, sounds about right. Pretty hard to set the record straight afterwards when everyone (including me) is all “vibes > facts”

Thinking of all those depressing studies that show substantive corrections never get the same SM traction that the flawed original stories get. 😢

@jerry @AGTMADCAT upon further reflection, I think @jerry is right. If they knew it was flat out wrong they would have said so explicitly.
