#1 Yes, Google is building a bubble so that nobody will be able to experience anything but the reality they present. It is information totalitarianism. Switch away from Google today, and tell your friends to do so too.

#2 This one has got me steaming. It's not just conservative websites but anyone who disagrees with the propaganda. I've seen Progressive websites on YouTube (Owned by Google) that have been censored because Google doesn't agree with their position.

#5 I don't know much about Richard Spencer other than he has been demonized as a white nationalist by the left-wing media. However, I do agree with his statement in the article:

"Authoritarianism in service of any cause leads to a slave society despite the best intentions of those who helped usher it in."

In another era, this all-to-familiar poem was written:

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

The "They" can be the Progressives, Socialists, communists, the alt-left, alt-right, anarchists, Bilderbergs, etc.; whoever has authoritarian control intentions--anybody who is opposed to the freedom of the individual, i.e. the statists. My advice to those who want to manipulate and control us: "Go fvck yourselves. FOESAD!"

#7 Next up: This will be used as a measure for granting people's access to posting articles on the internet, being on radio or tv.

For the children of course!

#8 Competition is what Google needs. DuckDuckGo.

#9 I use duckduckgo but doesn't it simply relay the request to google? If the source is tainted...

#10 I use DuckDuckGo for searches and couple this with Privacy Badger, which filters out trackers and other similar ilk. It learns. Worked well for me.

#11 No, duckduckgo does not relay the search to Google.
