Google is excelling again - as the whole “uncensored” Big-Tech IT now.

The short summary is that for nearly a year, Google was hiding Proton Mail from search results for queries such as ‘secure email’ and ‘encrypted email’. This was highly suspicious because Proton Mail has long been the world’s largest encrypted email provider.

    Ironically, Odysee doesn’t have enough censorship for me. Like any fledgling community, the main inhabitants of any alternatives are people who aren’t welcomed on mainstream social media. And I don’t mean the modern “every person right of me is a Nazi”. I mean a lot videos have comments calling for killing all Jews, one of the top education videos on the front page is by an occultist about how the wrong witchcraft caused 9/11, another is how the vaccines are going to start killing babies, etc.

    Technically, it’s fine, but who wants to post good videos or interact in a community of crazies?

      This is actually pretty funny. I am glad I am staying away from Odysee.

      In general, I am rather skeptical of “free speech absolutism” and what have you, comes off a little parochial to me.

        Yeah it’s almost always a front for batshit right-wing nutjobbery.
