Google is Biased?

By Zeeshan Shafquat | 17, Sep 2008 | 162 Comments

Let’s welcome Bites85, yes Bites85 is going to be our fellow writer at ProPakistani.com. Bites85 is a Tech Addict from Islamabad, Pakistan. Following article has been contributed by him…! We hope to see more from him in coming days!

Google Inc., is the largest online company and the most successful ever. I personally like Google and its services a lot. Google is better than Yahoo, MSN and others in many ways, and they have proved themselves over the years that they are best. Main attribute of Google is its innovative yet free services like Gmail, Ad sense, Google Search,Google Earth and many more. Millions of people use Google services daily and are contented with the outcome.

A very important factor for Google’s success is its localization, and the ease it provides for people all over the world and for all religions. Google on every occasion changes its logo with beautiful and colorful fun doing logos to match the occasion. Whether its holiday season, Christmas, Olympics,independence day or any other occasion.

Google Pakistan is the Pakistani version which is also provided in Urdu. Google says that its peoples’ company, but one can easily doubt that. Let me show you some official Google Logo’s.

Chinese new year 2008 logo

First Hot Air Balloon 2008 logo

Florence Nightingale Google UK Logo 2008

Google Christmas Logo

Google Holiday Logo

Halloween 2007 Logo

Mark Chagall Birthday 2008 logo

Mothers Day 2008 Logo

Roald Dahl Birthday 2007 Logo

St. George day 2008 Logo

St. Patrick’s day 2007 logo

Thanksgiving 2007 logo

All these logo’s are certainly beautiful – but one thing is missing. Every year Google celebrates these occasions with a dedicated logo. But Google never celebrated Happy Ramadan to the Muslim community around the world. There are more than one billion Muslim’s around the world. But Google never showed its affection towards Muslim’s. If Christmas, St. Patrick’s day, St.George day and other days are so much important than i think Google should also celebrate Happy Ramadan or Eids etc. Many Muslim’s also work for Google.

But Google not a single year celebrated it. Ramadan is the most holiest month for the Muslims and same is the case with Eid. But Google never ever made a dedicated logo. It could have shown it on first on Ramadan. Also if Happy Ramadan logo was not possible, Google could have made a Happy Eid

logo. But never ever made it. Google could also have made a Ramadan and Eid logo for only the Muslim countries like just for the Google Pakistan.

So can it be said that Google is bias? Well i certainly think it is, that otherwise Google could have made a logo to celebrate for the Muslims. And i am hoping that we may see a Happy Eid Logo this coming Eid…!

Awesome post bites85..

Never knew Google didn’t do anything for ramadan,well this reminds me of diwali in India.. google never had (I guess) a logo made specially for diwali celebration…

I must say sometimes Google is biased! I hope Google.com.pk finds this post mate!
http://www.whoismadhur.com Madhur Kapoor

I also feel that sometimes Google is biased.
http://www.propakistani.com Aamir Attaa

I will make sure that google people find this post… and we may see this Eid a logo for Muslim World that holds 17 percent of world’s population..!

What are you complaining about ?!?! Google is an American Organization.

  And America has largest muslim population, after Christians??
  - Furkan
    
    WHO said that :-o r u crazy? its u.S.A not U.M.A lol
http://www.sizlopedia.com DjFlush

Well actually you can’t simply jump to the conclusion right away that ‘Google is Biased’ just because Google does not make any Doodles for the Muslim community events.

Google focuses on events, culture celebrations for countries in which it has offices and official activities.

As they don’t have an office in any of the Muslim majority countries yet (and I don’t think they will ever have one), so you can’t blame Google for this now can you?
http://twitter.com/bites85 Bites85

@ Rockstar Sid thanks man !
@ Madhur Kapoor yes man Google is biased a lot of times.
http://twitter.com/bites85 Bites85

@anony its indeed American company but when they provide you with services like Google Pakistan in Urdu.Then we deserve a little courtesy.
@Dj Flush well thats not the case,no offices in Muslim countries does not mean they cant show us little affection.They also rely alot on 16% population,which are Muslims.
@Nayni well you are right but industry flourishes due to consumers ,if they make a logo about islamic bomb,their revenue will get a blow.So its just humanitarian ground that to wish Muslims an Happy Eid…it does not cost them.They are successful because they are user oriented company.So they should think about it.As more than 1 billion people is huge.
http://www.nirmaltv.com Nirmal

I cannot agree with this totally, its true that there is not logo for Ramadan, but as DJ Flush said, its based on culture of countries where it more popular.
http://twitter.com/bites85 Bites85

@ Nirmal you totally rite…but Google is very popular among Muslims …every kid does not know what blogging is ! but every kid knows what Google is! so i think that a little affection will be good..!!!
http://jrharshath.wordpress.com Harshath

Maybe that is because it is against Islam to make “idols”? I am told even photography is a modern relaxation of its very strict rules…

The last word in the above quoted sentence gave me quite close to what we call a laugh.

As for Bites85, Dude you sound as if you have been working in Google for 10 years and you seem to be their head of humanities and public relations.

Making assumptions is one thing, making dead sure statements is another.

Why don’t you take this up with Badar, the offical Google country representative for Pakistan (easy to find his contact info, just Google it). Get an official reply from them and it would make for an interesting follow-up post.
http://www.sizlopedia.com DjFlush

Btw Ramadan has 30 days :) The author of this post forgot to mention which day he wants Google to display the Ramadan Doodle

We have a lot of choices you see

1. Peshawar Ramadan Day

2. Saudi Ramadan Day

3. Rest of the world Ramadan Day

then there is the 30 whole days of Ramadan itself and a Eid day too

Wow! Google is at so much liberty here ain’t it?

http://teeth.com.pk/blog Teeth Maestro

A very interesting discussion, I too wish that we might have a Google Doodle for Pakistan one day / or for that fact an EID or Muslim Doodle, but to blame Google as being biased just because they have not done it — I believe is pushing it.

Send in a request, approach Google Pakistan rep [Badar Khushnood] locate the Google Doodle team and send them this as a suggestion – be proactive – im sure they wont mind sharing the Google Love.

But I agree its kind of depressing to have every other Doodle except a Muslim doodle LOL [funny ain't it, just using that word [doodle] I almost wish not to have one for Muslims LOL]

Over ‘n out
Dj Ommz

Well as far as i see now the trendz have been changed now giant organizations aint emphasizing on the profit based management system but now we are acting like a global villages and everything is just integrated people just expand their business by promoting each others culture and releigion. As a fact muslims contribute more than 17% of world population the biggest releigion being alive right now and if this thing comes under notice of all the muslims then it will make a difference to the Google people.

The point to think is being such a Bizz gaint Google cant ignore this fact Google is acting biased. wht if PTA blked something does Pakistan really represent 17% popukation of the world or wht . Whatb about other muslim majority countries?
Osama

I think we Muslims represent a huge percentage of the people living in this world… and we deserve to be treated equally good like the others… If its a policy that no religious logo should be put up… then no diwali or christamas logo should be put up there… And if they think that we Muslims dont have idols and pictures in our religion… well that is true… but we do advertise Eid and Ramadan … and so can Google…

yeah i agree with Osama
USMAN

well im lucky that i stumbled upon the site . . . after checking out all the comments . . . here is the conclusion.
” there is no doubt that muslims r a huge consumers of google and its due to google’s gurus that we get the services which r uncomparable with others but even the guru is not perfect, so they forgot to entertain muslims community, now is the time they make the right choice and make a logo for EID definitly they will get confirmed user hike and thats good for them”.
P.S: so guys we want a logo. . . go google!
Nayni

Google’s this biased attitude proves that business and emotions can go hand in hand. To launch Google Pakistan was their business need and to ignore “Islamic Events ” is their deliberate emotional and ‘sacred’ attempt.
I’m sure if they ask to make any logo for WAR ON TERROR , they will not waste a single moment to tag it as ‘Save the World from Islamic Bomb”. May be like American media , google is also greatly influenced by a certain lobby that takes breath with Tel Aviv , for Tel Aviv and because of Tel Aviv.

Whatever the case is , a popular search engine like Google should not be used to widen the gulf among the habitats of world , that could be used otherwise.

While i think the issue could be raised, the best way to get someone to your site is not to spam their comments section. Good luck on your quest, but to my knowledge users submit the icons, google doesn’t make them. Just what i know.
vimoh

I think I have read about this in “The Google Story” book. They don’t have logo celebration for religious occasions. All their celebrations are for secular festivals. They used to have a Diwali logo as well but it was removed when someone pointed out it was a Hindu festival. So there… :)

well first of all hats off to Bites85…a very good article indeed…and its true that google is biased..and will love to see a Happy Eid logo..We also want some care…Google is the best so i think should consider the idea…Gr8 bites85…
shahan

” I would agree with Bites85 that google is biased.It celebrates every single occasion.It would also be good if Google does some courtesy for us.I would love to see a happy eid google doodle,im hopeful that it will happen this Eid.Because google listens to its users.OH happy eid people in advance “
http://twitter.com/bites85 Bites85

@Osama @Dj Ommz @Usman @Sshm @Shahan

Thanks for your comments…! will see a Google happy eid logo on this eid…fingers crossed !
Newb3e

I dont get it why do Muslims care if some one is not celebrating eid.What will a google happy eid logo do for us?
Nothing its just bullshit rather then hoping for something positive from enemies of Islam respond them with a bigger product something bigger then Google or as a eid gift Nuke Occupied Plastine and kill all the jews.

Google do a great job in my opinion. They have a portal dedicated to Pakistan, urdu translation, a google rep in pakistan etc. I’m sure it’s an oversight but really great article Bites and well pointed out. I’ve always enjoyed the google doodles for the various events but it never crossed my mind to have one for Eid/Ramadan. Lets hope they do come up with one thats acceptable to ALL our factions!!! If they are a muslim hatin bunch then this would be a great opportunity for them to cause muslim faction tensions in the techie world for muslims too wouldn’t it!!
http://twitter.com/bites85 Bites85

@Nasir Mahmood well thnx for appreciating :)..hope they make one and no one should heva any problem with that…it will be good InshAllah…

http://is.gd/Fo2/91628758 design

Amen to that! Can I say “amen to that” in this context? Regardless, I have long felt that irrespective of its origins, there is a level of ignorance about the larger world that is almost inherent to the perspective of citizens of the US and the corporate entities that we create.

These blinders to the world around us reveal themselves in ways large and small – like someone saying “Amen” to a post as they know not what else to say or Google being blind to the point of view of many of their customers and potential customers.

Google is the best company but biased regarding this issue……I hope they understand the demand and make one happy eid google doodle for this eid…

http://www.sizzledcore.com Haris

I agree with DjFlush that Google doesn’t have any office or organization here in Pakistan. So it’s no wonder they don’t put up doodles of our occasions.
http://twitter.com/bites85 Bites85

@Haris very rite…but i think then they dont even have to give google in urdu version! likewise we deserve a doodle.
http://www.l33tzone.com c0d3r

Firstly, a very good point highlighted by Bites85 :) Thumbs Up :D Deserves a pingback!

Secondly, i suggest that we keep in mind a broader topic, ie: Doodles for Eid, for all muslims, not just a specifir country as pakistan. We can all mail google, cast a vote, blog about it etc to raise the topic. Digg, stumble, etc… when will they come in handy !
http://twitter.com/bites85 Bites85

@c0d3r thanks for the comment…well ofcourse actually the idea is for whole of the Muslim Community..i have signified that..It will be much better on Google.com … ;) thanks man !

Hello,

Yes, It’s very serious issue. Please share “contact forum” for complain to Google.

Google Has office in these countries Egypt (Heliopolis, Cairo), Turkey (Istanbul), Dubai. If anyone guy lived in these area. Please submit “Hard Copy” complain to Sub-Office.

I agree to DjFlush’s comment above that saying Google is biased could be a little extreme. After all, they’ve got Google Pakistan and Google Search in Urdu.

But it is completely true that there should be a doodle for Eid and similar occasions. In fact, I’m a little disappointed that the Google rep for Pakistan didn’t already approach Google. But the key here is to be proactive and helpful – ask them kindly, and I’m sure they’ll ‘Do no Evil’ ;)
http://nabeelzafar.com Nabeel

I feel ashamed. Demanding the google doodle for Ramadan and Eid seems like begging for something. Please, please, please make a doodle for us, we feel inferior without it, please don’t insult us, please don’t leave us out. Why don’t we make ourselves enough able, strong, advance, creative that others would come to us and ask for our demands.

Google Mapmaker blocking AJK and NA’s editing
http://groups.google.com/group/google-mapmaker/browse_thread/thread/559a6a5efb1753b1
———————
Dear Google,

Why am I unable to edit parts of Azad Jammu and Kashmir aka AJK and
Northern Areas aka NA’s in the Pakistan administered region of Kashmir
(the eastern side of the Line of Control (LoC))??

There is a white translucent polygon covering that entire Azad Kashmir
and NA’s region when you zoom in enough. At the highest zoom levels i
can select the editing tools but clicking on the region does not
initiate any edits?!

http://www.google.com/mapmaker?gw=10&ll=33.140426,73.622818&spn=0.346…

Even the city place marks are not available in the Azad Kashmir region
on the Pakistan side, cities like Mirpur and Muzaffarabad. But on the
flip side the Indian Administered Kashmir aka Jammu Kashmir is quite
extensively mapped.

It appears to me that regional politics has taken a front seat here.
If this is so, then this is most unfortunate and least expected of
Google.

AJK or Azad Kashmir is an officially recognized region with the Line
of Control demarcating the border between the Pakistani and Indian
administered regions of Kashmir. Then why this selective treatment is
being administered to the Pakistani administered side is a serious
question and would require an official explanation from Google and the
Mapmaker team.

Thank you!

this is what makes me sick. Someone has this grudge against another someone, and the WHOLE, following conversation takes that route, instead of the original thing [doodles]

http://www.pristinepakistan.com Nasir Mahmood

Heres a request from left field.

Instead of Google, why don’t we ALL who have our own sites/blogs have an Eid DOODLE? quit complaining about just google.

Can some artistic genius here make me a nice doodle/logo for Eid? You can enter your name on the doodle and I’ll happily credit you and offer you links and advertising space or whatever for the duration of Eid. i just think it would be nice.
I designed all the graphics (with great difficulty) and I can do the techie stuff but I’m definitely no artist!!

The site is Pristine Pakistan . com . If you do good, then I’m sure we can get this trend going and get a LOT of artistic requests.

why did that comment get removed? I only announced a competition for Eid where you can win a Sony Ericsson W850i for the best designed Eid logo for my site.

I actually agree with who said , this site belongs to am American organization , so don’t get surprised when facing such biases against Muslims and Muslim countries.
and as one of above users wrote, if they ( google ) are asked to doodled on War terror , the won’t hesitate a second to do that, because they will enclose Islam into it .
may ALLAH grant success to you

Just last year people celebrated eid-ul-fitr on different days. There are I don’t know how many sects. Ulemas can’t even come with a unified day of eid. Calling google biased and racist without even looking at the main problem is dumb.

Today you are complaining that Google is not showing Eid logo. Tomorrow if Google shows the logo millions of mullah will complain that it’s against Islam and put out a fatwa against Google. Why would Google want to do that against manic Muslims?
http://www.freeakhbar.com Akhbari Reporter

This post was written on Sep 17, 2008, and now its 2011 …. have that made any doodle for Muslims or Pakistan now? (‘?’)
Sri

I think google is wary of a fatwa being issued against any Islamic doodle it comes up with, since there are always enough lunatics ready to kill lots of people against any perceived slight on Islam.

Can’t blame them.

Google is offering Google Pakistan, and that too in Urdu, similarly for many other Muslim countries… it means they are only taking out their business from Muslim community, but not giving back our share in Doodles… little unfair
http://www.redmondpie.com Imran Hussain

Just because Google is offering localized versions for all countries and regions doesn’t mean they are taking out their business from these regions. I’m sure if PTA blocks Adsense ads in Pakistan, Google wouldn’t even notice a difference in their revenues.

You seriously got us all there. Good point.
http://www.propakistani.com Aamir Attaa

Imran, i am not sure if Google won’t mind at all for getting them blocked in Pakistan. We have an example, such as Lever Brothers Pakistan Limited (LBPL), they actually put their whole energy on even a little corner shop…

because these little units are making corporate entities earn big.

Though developing countries share little market for tech giants, but it wont be a good idea for ignoring them at all
http://www.propakistani.com Aamir Attaa

I am not sure, but I doubt Christmas is a religious event… what do you say?
http://www.redmondpie.com Imran Hussain

Internet Businesses and Level Brothers are very different entities altogether. If they were ignoring Pakistan, they wouldn’t have made a localized page for us. And speaking of ignorance, MSN, Yahoo and almost all other portals do NOT have even a localized page for Pakistan. I think we should be grateful for even having a localized page for Pakistan and not label them biased instead.

http://www.redmondpie.com Imran Hussain

Because neither does Yahoo, Microsoft or any other major internet company wishes Muslims Happy Ramadan, so you can’t just pick out one of them, just because they’re the best and put the blame on them. That is just as lame as it gets. TV channels are different then Internet entities. Why don’t people here get this point?

“It could have shown it on first on Ramadan. Also if Happy Ramadan logo was not possible, Google could have made a Happy Eid logo. But never ever made it. Google could also have made a Ramadan and Eid logo for only the Muslim countries like just for the Google Pakistan.”

I don’t know about Bites85 but the way you are advocating google , it sounds as you ‘ve been working in google for last ten years :-) May be it is an ‘assumption’ from my part but in many cases assumptions lead us to solid statements :-)

Bites85 has just pointed out one thing by using his , I must say , keen observation . When google celebrates “Christmis” , it means that they give importance to ‘religion’. Ethically they should give due place to the ‘religions’ of all of their users . I think there is no harm if someone try teach them ‘ marketing ethics’ :-)

If they don’t rate any voice from a muslim country where they ‘ve no local office then atleast they should learn a lesson from media that value their users despite the fact where they are and how many they are. If HBO, BBC , CNN and Star One can wish Happy Ramadan , why can’t google???

I don’t know why you don’t bother such negligence. If we could not realize this ‘disrespectful’ treatment , atleast we should support the elements that made us to ‘think’ for a while . :-)

I guess ya aint getting the topic here and its all the positive discussion going on here if this discussion can make them realize that muslim community around the world is getting hurt from google being biased and if they make eid logo this is our victory on the educated ground basis not like the poeple who think war is the end of everything. Atleast someone even thought they are biased instead of telling something which is not even taught in our religion

@Bites85, Well, actually the discussion went a bit off topic, when we diverted to country specific doodles… i say, as you already posted, we go for google.com … for all muslims.

@Zubair Naeem Paracha, I wish we could go beyond our personal interests over few issues at least…
http://www.xubair.com Zubair Naeem Paracha

@Aamir Attaa, that should have been the reply of comment made by bites85 =P
http://www.itsaLee.com aLee

@Aamir Attaa, If xubair would have complained about that, then it would have been justifiable at least, but it was Bites85 who got personal btw.
http://www.itsaLee.com aLee

@Bites85, LOL man!!!! you love publicity.. don’t u? :P Ahmed actually was discussing stuff written on xubair.com! He should have remove your name rather than xubair’s but he was not whining like you started.

@Zubair Naeem Paracha, Okay let’s take it this way : – ) I wish we could go beyond our personal interests over few issues at least…

This message is supposed to serve everyone who bears such intentions ..!

Zubair, you got a good blog ;)
http://www.propakistani.com Aamir Attaa

aLee Bahi, come on… we should work collectively for this. Working individually will bring us no results.
http://www.propakistani.com Aamir Attaa

http://www.xubair.com Zubair Naeem Paracha

@Aamir Attaa, now that looks much better lol =P
http://www.propakistani.com Aamir Attaa

@aLee, No one is getting personal… and even if someone does, let’s ignore him/her
http://www.itsaLee.com aLee

@Aamir Attaa, very right! let’s ignore people who acquire capabilities to be fame-hungry and jealous at the same time ;)
http://www.itsaLee.com aLee

http://www.itsaLee.com aLee

@Aamir Attaa, You’re probably right jiger, but the thing is what are we working at? You guys are calling Google Biased, and I’m not supporting it (you must have had an idea if you read my blog).. I don’t prefer to initiate a discussion if I don’t agree with a thing, this takes it off topic!
http://www.propakistani.com Aamir Attaa

@aLee, i read your post… but was in hurry so cudn’t drop the comment. I will do that in a while…
http://www.itsaLee.com aLee

Though, there are plenty of them amongst us. W850i is pretty handsome offer.

@Aamir Attaa, Aamir BHAI, thanks for even thinking about it. I just think we should all try and make our ownsites, EID google doodled before throwing stones at Google.

The rest of the world is probably thinking that we just want to make everyone else follow our demands but we don’t bother doing it ourselves first…thats SAD..very sad.
