The Real Enemy of the People: Social Media and Google
IWB ^ | Bob Shanahan

President Donald Trump again went after the liberal internet goliaths of Facebook, Twitter, and Google Tuesday afternoon, saying they are “treading on very, very troubled territory and they have to be careful.”

Trump went on to take direct aim at Google, telling reporters, “Google has really taken advantage of a lot of people and I think that’s a very serious thing and it’s a very serious charge. They better be careful because they can’t do that to people.”

Twitter continues to deny its liberal bias despite its shadow banning and silencing of conservative voices on its platform. The flamingly liberal Facebook did not return requests for comment, hiding behind Zuckerberg’s, “Senator, I’ll have my team get back to you” line. Google grotesquely denies that its search engine results prioritize anti-Trump news articles and restrict conservative publications from the world’s number one internet search company with 72.5 percent of the world’s market share.

Like television, cellphones, and other supposedly wonderful breakthroughs in communication over the years, what started out as great gets quickly turned into crap.

Someone is always willing to find shortcuts and ways to use the medium for ill gotten gain.

My only thing is, don’t “marry” any of them. I haven’t watch any TV in nigh on a year now, and I don’t miss it. If it wasn’t for my wife watching the cooking and home shows, I’s just cut the wire.

I hear about all the outrageous crap that comes out over CNN, MSNBC, etc...even some of the shows on FOX, and I’m glad I didn’t waste the time watching the one-eyed monster. I’d rather be whittling.

I have been without a television for at least eight years. I don’t miss it. Instead of that time waster, I have more time for working out or reading. Heavy reading. The guide for the perplexed, by Maimonides.

BS ... where do these evil tech companies MINE the data. Good grief, it ALL comes from the news media!

And if 96% of the news media is negative on Trump, what are you going to “collect?” Negative garbage. You don’t need a “biased algorithm. This is giving the news media a pass they DO NOT deserve.

We didn’t have a TV for years into our marriage until my in-laws gave us their *old* one.

And so there it sits. I dust it once in a while and on rare occasion turn it on. like Trumps State of the Union address last year which was awesome to watch.

Sometimes I pop in a DVD to watch.

Otherwise, I’m just too busy to be bothered wasting time on the plug in drug.
