TFA suggests that google is pushing people towards results that cause people to worry about the health concerns associated with nanotech, rather than the possibilities. Why would google jeopardize all their goodwill over such a relatively obscure topic? I don't buy it. (It later admits that it might be the mainstream media that is skewing the availability of evenhanded article and sites, and google is just transparently passing along that bias).
First you get excited about a new tech, then you start worrying if there are any problems with it.
Google seems to be tracking that perfectly according to this article, and it's exactly what I would expect.
