On the afternoon of Aug. 19, 2017, East Coast Time, statistics professor Salil Mehta discovered that he had been banned by Google
- As reported by ZeroHedge.com, this entailed having all of his Google-linked accounts erased and rendered inaccessible,
- from his e-mail to his blog to all of his Google-hosted university pages.
- This came as a complete shock to the Columbia University adjunct professor
- as he had been given no reason nor warning for the total wipeout of every single one of his accounts.
- All of his repeated attempts to restore those accounts were rejected and
- explained away by Mehta allegedly violating the company’s Terms of Service…
Despite the fact that nearly all of his Google-related efforts were dedicated to promoting math theory
- In his own words, Mehta’s background was spotless and
- absent of “political or social agenda”.
- At no point or time did he advocate or denigrate a certain viewpoint.
- “I teach probability math and that’s it,” he stated in his open letter.
“[I] have worked with both the Obama administration and advised on polling statistics for the Trump campaign, am an adjunct professor at three top universities, an editor of the peer-reviewed journal of the American Statistical Association, and wrote a best-selling statistics book - all the proceeds of which I gave to charity!”
Mehta then went on to ask if Google intends on treating “all CEOS and professors and politicians” the same way, if they plan on holding kangaroo courts and treating all their customers without tact or grace. He recalled how his appeals were greeted by stone-cold silence for days, and then answered coolly and with little empathy to his situation.
“Fear is running wild about who is next and on what other social media platforms,” he wrote. “We are going to be looking back on this time in Google’s history and those of other social media and know that they have done some very immoral and confusing things, and it has hurt their public reputation with decent people who wanted to grow into the next future with them.”
Fortunately, Mehta’s story ends on a happy note. According to OneNewsPage.com, Google finally relented and restored all of Mehta’s accounts to their former state on Aug. 22, 2017. For his part, Mehta has gone on to state that he has no intention of commenting on the incident any further, nor does he begrudge Google. It remains unknown, however, what the exact reasons are behind the initial ban.
Of course, this whole occurrence could have been avoided had Google actually done their research on Mehta’s body of work, or simply not banned him at all.
Google has already earned itself the reputation of being the Internet’s censor and master manipulator
- do they really to want be caught doing anything that bolsters that?
- Mehta’s situation points to a solid “yes”.

- Google doesn’t mind being called out for its censorship of different viewpoints.
- They don’t care that their silencing of “naysayers” affects scientists and statisticians,
- people who, for the most part, are committed to preserving and presenting the facts as they are.
- Even if they hurt or go against the grain.
- But then again, that’s exactly why Google would want to suppress them, right?
- Because they think and speak of something different?
- Even or especially if it’s the truth?
