Google Docs will “warn you away from inappropriate words”
I think there's a valid concern with this; a concern which is not necessarily distilled down to "big brother" or "corporate overlords".Google is so large that any stance they take, no matter how minuscule, has immense influence.Case in point, from this article:
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/08/02/technology/google-maps-ne...> For decades, the district south of downtown and alongside San Francisco Bay here was known as either Rincon Hill, South Beach or South of Market. This spring, it was suddenly rebranded on Google Maps to a name few had heard: the East Cut.> The peculiar moniker immediately spread digitally, from hotel sites to dating apps to Uber, which all use Google’s map data. The name soon spilled over into the physical world, too. Real-estate listings beckoned prospective tenants to the East Cut. And news organizations referred to the vicinity by that term.My point is, it might seem like a small, inconspicuous change.  But at Google-scale, this actually has an impact on the real world, and personally I don't feel confident with Google deciding what words are the correct words.
