Our old blog-bud Doug gets a taste of the Google lash.
Helpful hint. For any political search on the web, I recommend using https://t.co/XCYMbXYwz3 … Google is actively re-ordering search results, censoring news, and hiding damaging information against @thedemocrats.
I proved it long ago here: https://t.co/0poWyNsemC

Oh, interesting tidbit: I couldn't even find my own 2017 blog post using Google. It was #1 on DuckDuckGo (https://t.co/RYFNlkqWqL)

The saga continues:
To put it bluntly, Google appears to be deleting search results that criticize its use of algorithms to enforce totalitarian political bias. Looks like I hit a nerve.
What’s next? Is Google going to start deleting blog posts with which it disagrees?
Count on it, buddy. He recommends the same recourse that I’ve been shouting about for a long, long time now: Dump Google, use Duck Duck Go instead. Might want to consider switching hosting-service providers there too, old chum.
I’ve been using duckduckgo for a long time. At first I sometimes had to follow up with a google search as DDG would not find what I knew was available. I no longer use anything but DDG for searches. It works better than google even when google is not actively censoring something.
I do use google for location searches as I find their maps just better.
And I’m still using gmail, mostly out of habit and it’s a pain in the rear to change your email address.
