Welp, count out “Brave” search

DuckDuckGo search engine users were recently thrown into confusion when their carefully chosen search engine suddenly turned into a Google Junior source of disinformation, misinformation, and purposefully skewed search results.

For whatever reason, and it is not unfair to assume it was the usual financial buy-out by authoritarian Leftists that has afflicted the Drudge Report, Instagram, YouTube, and other once-free sites, DuckDuckGo abandoned the basic premise (freedom, privacy) on which it was first sold to users. First, we noticed that our DuckDuckGo search results were suddenly looking impossibly homogeneous and completely mainstream political and cultural narrative. Where once there had been diversity of search results, now there was just mainstream media lie after mainstream media lie after another.

And then DuckDuckGo admitted publicly that they had changed their function to “fight misinformation,” which to even the blind, deaf and dumb observer means that DDG got on board with the 100% Total Lies and Disinformation Campaign by the politically active Big Media and Big Tech industrial complex. Absolutely nowhere to be seen in search results were articles by The Gateway Pundit or Breitbart, despite these two actual news sources being incredibly popular and thus deserving of generating hits on search results.

So many of us former DDG users went looking for alternative search engines to serve up real and honest results. I tried the “Brave” search function last week, for a solid week. This is the native search function built into the “Brave” browser, which I still use. And I’ll be darned, but didn’t I watch the Brave search results quickly go from crummy but kind of pleasantly wild and unfocused to … ta da … 100% mainstream media and Big Tech garbage and nonsense.

Seems like the wrong people are watching and doing their best to keep corralling us away from truth or at least diversity of opinion, and into a tight, dark funnel that by itself is evidence of deceit.

It didn’t take long for authoritarian leftist computer programmers somewhere to manipulate Brave’s search engine into a BORG-like clone of the new and most unimproved DuckDuckGo, Google, Yahoo and every other politicized and deliberately manipulated search engine dedicated to keeping your eyes from reading things and learning things that book-burning authoritarian leftists don’t want you to see.

So I am now presently using Qwant, and so far I am pleased. It lacks the power of the original freedom-embracing search engines, notably Google 1.1, but by God so far it generates search results free of politically and culturally motivated meddling and control. And that alone is reason enough to use it.

And for all you young people out there, inspired by being all “resistance” and “dissenters,” this is your moment to stand up and be counted. Resist the authoritarian Left that is trying to assimilate you into their BORG hive. If you do not now mount your dissent against their book burning mind-controlling tendencies, and if you do not resist their evil, lying political narratives, then you will lose all of your individualness and personal autonomy.

Hey kids, is this how you see yourself? In mindless service to a suffocating and evil anti-freedom uniformity and sameness? If not, then you must resist the authoritarian Left, like the mainstream media, Google and Big Tech, etc.

Time to regulate the social media utilities

Social media companies like FakeBook, Twitter, Google, InstaGram, etc. have become the modern day information equivalents of the first power and public service utilities.

Instead of water molecules, gas, sewer, or electrons (electricity) entering and exiting your home to keep your life running, today’s digital social media companies transmit photons and ones and zeros to your laptop and handheld device. The net result for the end user is that all these things are all one and the same utility service, and they serve the same function.

Just like the power company, say PPL, and the gas company, and the water company cannot discriminate against users of their services, so the same applies to the digital information companies above.

For example, you do not come home at night, flick the light switch on your wall, and remain in darkness because you got a call earlier in the day from PPL saying “Sorry, Jane, we have turned off your electricity, because we have determined that your political views are contrary to our arbitrary and vague terms of service and our company’s values.”

PPL and other utilities must provide their services and products equally to all who pay for them.

It is time to hold digital utility service providers to the same exact standard. No discrimination against users.

Presently, Google so obviously fakes its search results to favor political candidates and campaigns the owners of Google favor. Google’s politicization of search results on every subject and person is egregious.

Like Google, FakeBook also obviously discriminates against conservatives, engaging in shadowbanning and hiding messages its liberal owners do not want the public to see. Worse, Fakebook has made a lucrative business charging its users for advertising, but the person who pays for that service never knows just how far their investment went, because FakeBook deliberately withholds information about its actual efforts.  It is a blind item, exactly the opposite of what it should be: Open and transparent.

Twitter’s legendary war against non-liberals is the most public form of censorship. As illiberal as this censorship is, liberals still cheer.

These companies and the many other liberal book-burners in the digital media business have declared war on ideas and people they simply disagree with. It is time to end this assault on the First Amendment rights of American citizens who have entrusted these companies to abide by universal free speech standards.

It is time to regulate these companies like the public utilities they have become, to prevent them from illegally discriminating against people who merely disagree with their owners.

Treat us all the same legally.
