“Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.”
At the very least, their online products should be partitioned into “censored” and “Wild West” sections.
It’s the “Wild West” aspect of the Internet, among other things, which has drawn people away from the stale MSM. Censor the Internet, and it will lose a good deal of its appeal.
Thank you, brave Google employee, whoever you are, who keeps leaking this stuff to Breitbart.
And that's where it starts. How long until they start saying the same thing about main street, or at the ballot box... While they may not be saying it openly (yet), I am certain there are many 'rat & leftists thinking it.
Go ahead Google, Facebook, Apple, et. al., adopt some "limited" censorship. While you're at it, why don't you burn a few books - well, in the modern age delete a few posts, exclude a few search results. Things like that. For the good of the proletariat. Er... I mean people, yeah, that's it. :-/
I wonder if they have any idea just how much they sound like (and in broad strokes are repeating the actions of) European fascists in the 1930s? {literally shaking my head} {expletive}...here we go again, really people? Are we destined to fight the same battles against the same bad ideas and ideals again?
Those are just the noob’s with less than three months service. It’s the guys without the beanies, the ones driving the Volts and Priuses that you need to worry about.

When private companies are so huge they can squash any and all budding competition we no longer have a free market. There is no serious threat to these companies now that they have sucked in the pretty much entire population onto their communication platforms. Entire public school districts across the world use their platforms for teaching, research, assignments, everrthing! With this much control, the government has a constitutional DUTY to pritect the first amendment by all means necessary. This is imperative or we are toast.
There is not now, nor has there ever been, a free market economy.
“Stop using Google”
In todays world thats like saying,
“Stop using High Fructose Corn Syrup” or
“Are you sure you dont want extra anti-depressants with that?”
Doesn’t matter what you see
Or into it what you read
You can do it your own way
If it’s done just how I say
[Chorus]

Freedom of choice is made for you, my friend
Freedom of speech is words that they will bend
Freedom with their exception

BTW, one of the key elements to Bing's search algorithm is "what does a google search return?" So if you're using Bing you're still getting google results.
Ping to swordmaker. Is this true?
