Over 1,000 Google employees sign petition to use market dominance to starve Breitbart of ad revenue

What is Breitbart? Oh yeah, the guys who banned me from commenting on their site, and would not tell me why.

[SkyDancer]

I think it would be DISQUS since that's what they use for comments; they have their own moderators as well as DISQUS.

Banning would be like:

We welcome thoughtful responses and inputs. Comments with personally identifiable information, harassment, threats, or other violations will be removed.

Please let us know if you're having issues with commenting.

What did you post to have you being banned?

[SkyDancer]

PS: I’ve read some pretty nasty comments directly aimed at specific individuals and they were posted.

Wow that sure sounds like being on the edge of an anti-trust law to me.

I wonder if the RICO laws can be used against such organized criminal organizations such as Google?

Agree, they are public utilities in so far as people now depend on them for a functional life in this world of global interconnectivity. That said I am all for government imposing rules defining what they can and cannot do. If it isn’t a censored site at all I’d be more likely to contribute a monthly fee to sustain it, much like our utilities.

I feel it’s the governments job to ensure our 1a rights are not trampled upon. Currently they are and will continue with impunity until something is done to prevent this. I think we are going down a rabbit hole which will prove difficult/dangerous to get out of.

That's the problem- I don't know. When I used contact-us on their site and asked (several times over a couple of weeks) they didn't give me the courtesy of a reply.

As far as DISQUS is concerned, I've used it on other sites since then without any problems.

Once again, let us worry about massive communications corporations's "property rights" to a publicly used communications infrastructure instead of worrying about how this control of communications will be used to destroy millions of lives if they are allowed to keep doing it.

So 1% of Alphabet's employees signed a letter.

What was management's response?

[SkyDancer]

Well I’ve been banned from MyNorthwest.com for some stupid reason; they’ve never said why.

My FRiend, it is not so much readers (unless they are searching) but advertisers who have been stopped from going to, or paying, WND. This is one way Google has strangled people who think differently.

So 1% of Alphabet's employees signed a letter.

What percentage of employees decides what a corporation will do? 50%? Or is it closer to 1%, or even just 1?

It's the executive management which is way less than 1%

It damn sure isn't the Filipino feminist Googlers shown on the Project Veritas smoking email.
