Google's making connections that aren't neccessarily (sic) true,


No they aren't, they are suggesting you search for something that isn't true, you have to make the connection yourself by actually reading the results, and if you take time to read the results you will see that they haven't won the Stanley cup.

Are people getting so lazy they don't even read the results of their searches anymore? They just see search suggestion and think they have found their answer?

It was pointed out elsewhere

Type the letters "micro" in the search box, and the first suggestion that comes up is "Microsoft," not because Google loves Microsoft -- Google doesn't, they're deadly competitors -- but because "Microsoft" is what most people who type the letters "micro" are looking for.


Based on many other things I think it is clear that Google isn't endorsing or even making any claims implied by those suggestions.
