Last week it was reported that Google was going to derank Russian Media Sites. This week Google has written a letter to Russia's communications watchdog telling them that they don't change their search algorithm to do re-ranking. I think Google is talking out of both sides of their mouth about all of this. On one hand they tell the west that they are all about stopping Russian trolls and then tell Russia they are doing no such thing. Just goes to show that corporations are all about the bottom line no matter what flavor of crazy politics they claim to espouse.
"We’d like to inform you that by speaking about ranking of web-sources, including the websites of Russia Today and Sputnik, Dr. Eric Schmidt was referring to Google’s ongoing efforts to improve search quality," Google said in a letter posted on Roskomnadzor’s website.
