You do as soon as you use Google search.

Which is a much bigger concern than what kind of political gibberish you see on twitter, as we all now more or less the the world through the lens of web searches.

BTW, am I the only one to notice that Wikipedia entries have moved down the Google result list in the last months?

Could that be correlated to zero ad revenue from Wikipedia?

Just guessing.
