This might be old news to some people. I couldn't find a forum category to post it in. So the mods will probably need to move it. 

 

 

"Google to block all anti-cancer, “anti-vax” and anti-GMO websites at the browser level as tech giant goes all-in with pharma drug cartels"

Ignore the article’s right-wing bias. That’s irrelevant to the Google situation.

This google issue has been discussed before in another thread. However, the guy's claim that we will not be able to reach his website in chrome is not true...I just did.

 

However, I am shocked at the autocomplete issue mentioned in the article. I didn't realize chrome "suggested" autocomplete answers this highly partisan way...

 

In chrome I typed "Organic is" and "supplements are" and the autocomplete results were nearly completely negative towards those words. 

 

I can imagine that many more search words and search phrases that are being directed to negative attributes. Pathetic...use DuckDuckGo.

Google demonetizes some LongeCity content as well.

 

Use DuckDuckGo.

 

Use Brave or TOR browser.

 

Use Protonmail instead of gmail.

The brilliance of the American fascist system is the recognition that full control is not necessary. With subtle methods, the population can be induced to control itself.

The Brave browser has a somewhat dubious business model: it strips out all ads from websites, but then replaces them with its own ads.

Thanks for the link, Mind.

Half truths

 

Replace them only if you choose to activate brave rewards, if you don't then you flip the toggle and you don't see any ads

I just installed the Brave browser, and I notice you cannot even set which URL appears in new windows or new tabs. I like to be able to set a particular search engine such as Google to appear in new windows and tabs.

Welcome my son, welcome to the machine

Where have you been?

It's alright, we know where you've been

You've been in the pipeline filling in time

Provided with toys and 'Scouting for Boys'

You brought a guitar to punish your ma

And you didn't like school

And you know you're nobody's fool

So welcome to the machine

Welcome my son, welcome to the machine

What did you dream?

It's alright, we told you what to dream

You dreamed of a big star

He played a mean guitar

He always ate in the Steak Bar

He loved to drive in his Jaguar

So welcome to the machine

Well said.
