Google bias on circumcision is evident when one runs searches at Google regarding circumcision. A search for "circumcision information for parents" produced a list of about 230 promotional pages produced by various institutional and individual vendors of circumcision who profit from the performance of circumcision, so are highly biased. No pages by opponents of circumcision such as Intact America, Saving Our Sons, or IntactiWiki were provided.
Separate searches for those named organizations did produce a link to their webpage but one has to type in their exact name to see it.
Other searches for circumcision, will produce known biased sources such as Wikipedia, the Mayo Clinic, and Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. The IntactiWiki page, Circumcision bullet-points for parents, can only be found if the title of the page is enclosed in quotation marks.
Alternative search engines may produce more balanced results than Google.
