I don't know if they are "trying" to control the way we live, but they can 
influence it by only making information they deem appropriate accessible in 
their searches.  The Google ranking algos are de facto the lenses through 
which many people access a lot of information today (c. 70% global market 
share on searches).  Google can obfuscate facts and limit our breadth of 
vision, but in most cases I suspect this is only a reflection of what their 
users are interested in.
