You have trained Google to recognise Lexis as an alias for LexisNexis.

I disagree completely. Google knows Lexis is an alias for LexisNexis, but I did not train it from an individual level filter bubble perspective.

Look at the below results. They are sourced from Google but proxied so that Google doesn't get any information on the end user. The firsts result should be one that provides the relevant article I was initially looking for. [0]

Just one final point. Half the results on the DDG page for initial "Lexis" search I ran are for the car company "Lexus". So let's not pretend that DDG is respecting user search queries.
