How fast can a person read? Google’s search engine started by processing only 30 pages per second but now processes millions of pages in just a fraction of a second (Epstien, 2014, para. 4). When competing with that type of processing power and speed to reach data, most people will not spend the time or effort to research something themselves. Google’s search engine’s power continues to grow as the world’s search engine and the information returned to a user from a search is important. The control of information in the Google search engine is based on who has the ‘redacting black marker’ power, Google or individual. Google has maintained this control, however, ethically an individual should have the ability to protect one’s privacy.
