Google recently released and touted their research on fake listings in Google Maps. While their may have been a few problems with the research and quibbling about the details, I wanted authoritative voices as to its worth. I reached out to the living past presidents1 and asked them.
“It depends on your definition of fake, but I found the research very interesting”.
“The research was very, very special and very, very nice”.
“Intelligence gathered by this and other Google research leaves no doubt that the fake listings possessed and concealed some of the most awful spam ever devised. Google has been been very candid about their past. They found the weapons causing this abuse and destroyed them”.
“Read my lips, if Google says no new spam, it means no new spam”.
“I’ve looked on a lot of spam with lust. I’ve committed spam in my heart many times. I am glad it was just in my heart or Google would have suspended me”.
“During my administration, Google signed into effect the biggest fake listing cut in history”
