No, it doesn't.  If you include the quotes as shown there it returns
exactly 1 result -  this very article.

Yes, if you leave off the quotes you get more hits - about 900 million for
me, less than the 1.5 billion stated.  That's slightly less than if you
search for (without quotes) "computer information green car", but around 3
times as many as if you search for "computer information green dog". It's
also roughly the same number as if you search for "the world will end
tomorrow", so I guess if the number of Google results from any particular
search is relevant to absolutely anything, then we're all in trouble
tomorrow - including our computerized green dogs!

Perhaps training in how Google search results work could be an early goal
of this new safety board?
