The leftwingers at Google can eagerly cooperate with the Butchers of Beijing but try to ban conservative sites.

Nice to know that liberals are so conssitent.

Google doesn’t filter content. Nice try, though.

What likely happened is that, somehow, a malicious script or ad was displayed on the site at the time the company’s spiders indexed the page.

The link I posted takes you right to it. I browse there with no problems. If you worry, downlowd Spybot Search and Destroy and run it from time to time.

http://digg.com/tech_news/YouTube_to_Lose_Popularity_After_Google_Filters_Content

Under pressure from media companies, Google plans to start filtering videos on YouTube

www.youngentrepreneur.com/blog/?p=232

In an attempt to make the search results more valuable to its users, Google implemented the duplicate content filter

http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum30/30575.htm

I run several directories that do pretty well in google, but as of this morning I see that one of them has been de-indexed by them.

Just a few examples. They filter all the time, to meet whatever standard they choose. BTW, I got these results by entering “Google filters content” in Google! (I never use Google because of its strong left-wing bias, but decided it would be fun to see if Google would accept that phrase.

Don’t use google..98% of the google bucks went to Dems in 2004, that is a bit of a hint.
