&gt;&gt;  I don&#x27;t like there being economic incentive to mess with my research when I&#x27;ve already decided what I want.<p>The effects of this are subtle, but it could be that they are pretty big.<p>Just look at Google removing forum search from it&#x27;s engine - so instead of reading discussions among people(and some shills, sure), most people often read commercial stuff or crap journalism.What does that do to democracy ? consumer choice ?
