Well since most of these big tech companies are based in liberal la-la land called commifornistan, I'm sure their employees will push search algorithms that clearly benefit a very specific viewpoint.
If you guys don't believe me, open up your homepage, and count how many of the recommended links/newstores/videos go to a left leaning website vs right leaning website. I'm betting the left leaning links far outnumber the right leaning links. On my homepage, its 10 to 1.

Their algorithm has proven to be based more on credibility than left or right.
Google rewards reputable reporting, not left-wing politics - Seek and you shall find

To me its a 10 to 1 difference in bias.
Try it for yourself.

Huh, that's actually somewhat challenging: How to go about finding unbiased information from an unbiased standing. A search engine has no more obligation to present you unbiased information than a news station, they're all just trying to increase quarterly profits anyway and currently the best way to do that is to tell people what they want to hear. Every source you meet is gonna have a bias so who do you trust and why?

I just went to bing and searched google search bias. There are lots of results.
96 Percent of Google Search Results for 'Trump' News Are from Liberal Media Outlets
Trump is right: More than Facebook & Twitter, Google threatens democracy, online freedom
Google search results found to exhibit extreme bias in favor of liberal websites, proving election meddling and fraud
just a few.

The funny thing is, this is a Toyota 4runner forum, not a political forum, I thought politics was not allowed

This IS a Toyota 4Runner forum. That would be considered the main topic of this forum. This particular section is titled "Off-Topic". Meaning the discussions had in this section should NOT be 4Runner related. You're welcome.
