Google admits to bowing to Biden censorship, and vows to end all bans
Click for original.
In a major announcement, the House Judiciary committee today revealed that Google has admitted that it had bowed to direct pressure by the Biden administration to censor conservatives, and it now vows to never bow to such pressure again.
The company has also agreed to allow everyone it banned due to that pressure to return to Youtube.
The graphic to the right comes from the committee’s announcement. All five points listed are critical to the future. First, Google now confirms the truth of another “rightwing conspiracy theory”. The Democratic Party under Biden was aggressively abusing its power to censor its opposition. Second, Google now admits it participated in this wrong-doing, and pledges to never do it again.
Finally, and most important, it notes the threat to freedom and free speech now posed by Europe and its new censorship laws. That threat is real, and unless American companies have the courage to tell Europe to pound sand, we could see them agreeing to squelch our speech in order to keep their businesses open in Europe. Google is essentially asking Congress and the federal government to do something to protect it from those laws.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The print edition can be purchased at Amazon or from any other book seller. If you want an autographed copy the price is $60 for the hardback and $45 for the paperback, plus $8 shipping for each. Go here for purchasing details. The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

Regrettably, I am nevertheless continuing my years-long ban on all things Google.
How are these platforms sorting out E.U. and British censorship? Watch what they do and not what they say.
