California | IndymediaGoogle Nonlisting, Hiding, or Decimation Of Links
some of numberless abuses by Google Google Nonlisting, Hiding, or Decimation Of Links
One day after criticizing Google's partner Wikipedia on this forum for its prowar bias, Google listing of links for the author already truncated to 70,000 links was further decimated to 5600. Among the remaining 5600 links antiRomney articles were prominently featured. In general, antiwar, environment, prison rights, minority rights, animal rights, socialist activists and poets find their links are not fairly reflected, are hidden or eliminated altogether from lists. Vegetarians and vegans who request vegetarian restaurant listings in a certain city might find a steakhouse prominently featured as first in the list. Those who ask for the number of casualties in Iraq and Afghanistan find 2009 or 2005 articles listed first. There is a matrix of warmonger media which includes Google, Wikipedia, and Facebook, a social network which eliminated 850,000 Boycott BP page members. Google was founded by Sergei Brin now a billionaire, whose work at Stanford was funded by your tax dollars funneled through the CIA. Google Earth cooperates with the US military and in addition spies on people around the world, though the European Union has filed lawsuits. One NYC poet said that Google Earth did not stop at building walls but went through her window.

I have run an independent news website for the past 12 years. The site includes a free links listing service where visitors can post their own links to their websites in a comprehensive links directory. I stipulate that these links are free, are placed by their respective owners, and all links automatically include the tag 'rel="nofollow"' as requested and required by Google. Regardless, this has not stopped Google from threatening people who place links on my pages. Over the past year I have received emails from persons requesting removal of their link from my pages as they had been 'penalised' by Google. Google appears to consider that only Google or affiliate search engines are 'authorised' to maintain a directory of website listings and links and anyone else attempting to provide a free links service is doing something wrong. If there is someone out their with legal standing who would like to pursue this illegal activity in a court of law then I have all the required evidence for such a case. newsmedianews Homepage: http://www.newsmedianews.com/list1index.shtml 13 orangeinks.com Larry Page Google CEO Matthew Cutts mattcutts.com sometimes answers questions about Google's selection of links Google staff Eric E.
