Remember vice president Al Gore? Who was pretty famous for claiming to invent the internet but now more famous for making hundreds of millions off of global warming.

Well a recent article in the NewYorker(subscription required to read article) magazine interviews Al Gore and talks specifically about his involvement with Google. Even more specifically about his role as an adviser to the search quality team and what they should and should not censor politically.

The article somewhat alludes to Google’s involvement as a whole with the democratic party and how they could drastically help (or not). It also talks about how Google’s CEO Eric Schmidt serves in the Obama administration.

It also talks about how in general the Obama administration has turned a blind eye to a lot of Google’s advertising tactics. Giving them room to disclose less about their deceptive advertising methods.

I wrote before about how I thought Google did not want to go down the FTC road but if they have the Whitehouse in their back pocket then that would make sense why they can act all giddy
