http://www.theroot.com/blogs/the_grapevine/2015/05/_n_ga_house_search_takes_you_to_the_white_house_on_google_maps.html

So I am wondering, did you discover this, post about it and then then your post was discoveref by someone who writes for the root and they wrote about it? Or did you see this elsewhere and post about it and they stumbled across the same thing and decided to write about it?

and this post did not come up in the results.

link i wanted to post - http://www.wired.com/2015/05/google-maps-racist/

the most interesting is that it isn't about user content. its about algorithms interpreting what people mean. in other words a proto AI reading the internet came to understand that the nigga house is the white house, meaning its not an actual mistake.

yall sit and think about that for a minute then carry on posting on the innanetz.
