[Mathieu ONeil]

The CEO of Google is being grilled by Congress about how the search algorithm works:

"Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.), who has battled Google in the past
as a state attorney general, summed it up this way: “First you ran the
racetrack, then you owned the racetrack. You own the horses now, and
your horses are winning"
