alt Hacker Newsit IS google's fault, because they have created and are directly publishing defamatory content
how would you feel if someone searched for your name, and Google's first result states that you, unambiguously (by name and city) are a registered sex offender?
not a quote from someone else, just completely made up based on nothing other than word salad
would you honestly think "oh that's fine, because there's a size 8 text at the bottom saying it may be incorrect"
I very much doubt it

Suppose AI wasn't in the picture, and google was only returning a snippet of the top result, which was a slanderous site saying that you're a registered sex offender. Should google still be held liable? If so, should they be held liable immediately, or only after a chance to issue a correction?
I believe 'meindnoch was being sarcastic.
