There is no way that the FreeBSD project can ensure that all Google results for everyone in the world are FreeBSD related "good" documentation, but it can ensure that the documentation included with FreeBSD is accurate and usable, and it can ensure that the FreeBSD documentation is available via the internet. Aside from blindly following whatever generates the most Google results (an obviously broken solution), what exactly can the FreeBSD project do to ensure that when someone "Googles" a problem they will end up with a correct FreeBSD solution?
