What is?

I’ve seen it carry over to real threads here also. Also, the fighting eventually turns in to one line back and forth, reports being made, threats, etc. None of those are any help to the forum as a whole. Google doesn‘t like to see this type behavior either and penalizes sites for it…

It's awesome to see a giant, soulless corporation control most of the internet's speech through ad revenue. Google should probably face some form of monopoly break up. Google is literally shaping the minds of people, because they have so much control over what so many people say, and Google rigs everything in their favor, censors for money. That's just the way it is. My point is anyone under that thumb of Google is going to always be a limited victim of Google, it's just parasitic, IMO, ultimately, Google is with what they're doing. It's much more than just a tech company.

It's basically corporate welfare, and Google controls behavior with a social score type deal of their own making, which includes interests outside of the US, which is where I am, so regular people's thoughts and speech are being crushed by a giant multinational corporation that helps communist China control and round up people (Google does- Dragonfly, China).

I'm all for breaking up Google, Amazon, Meta, et al. We used to do this with little hesitation.

Agree 100%. Google is on a mission to destroy any site they can that doesn’t ultimately send traffic aka $$ to them.

There are other search engines for sure. I use ad block and ghostery in my browser. Google is pretty barren when I use it.

And if you get big enough, Google, Meta, etc will buy you.

I‘m thinking Google has a liking for Reddit, as they have pushed them above most other forums/discussion sites out there recently in searches.

There is a time to let the free market do what it does.

I'd like to know the dosage. Is this like those experiments they did on rats with THC that shows the devastating effects of THC. However, when you look at the dosage/lb, well yeah if you give a rat the equivalent of a human smoking a pound weed, yeah bad shyt will happen.

Nothing could go wrong with this. Postal employees can now carry at work. I'm not saying employers should ban guns at work, but they should be able to ban guns at work.
