How Google manipulates search results

It has been for quite some time public knowledge that not only is Google politically biased, but in fact they go out their way to manipulate search results in their search engine. Perhaps no better indication of this is the autocompletion feature of the main Google search page, and a comparison to the DuckDuckGo search engine, which prides itself for being unbiased and opposing censorship and manipulation of search results.

For example, writing the name "hillary clinton" in the Google search box results in these completion suggestions:


Any word that's in some way negative seems to be conspicuously missing in the completion suggestions. Now let's compare it to what DuckDuckGo gives us:


"Indictment" and "email scandal" appear as some of the top suggestions.

What happens if we write "hillary clinton crim" in DuckDuckGo?


And what happens if we do the same on Google?


Need I even say anything?
