I never use Google for any searches, and only use Bing for work-related searches. Duckduckgo for personal stuff.
I only use google for porn searches. Duckduckgo is suprisingly poor at that.

I have personally found that searching the etymology of names and looking up "victims" in the weirder news articles will often reveal that the story is completely fabricated.
It is also a known tactic of intelligence agencies and criminal organizations worldwide to utilize news articles to convey messages to operatives.

So, there is a decoder book to these kinds of stories?
If I look up “Mr Hands”, “Seattle”, and “perforated colon”, what is the message being sent to the CIA?

Example:
Agency Sent Messages to Spy Suspect Through Classified Ads
The Central Intelligence Agency has made use of mass media assets, both foreign and domestic, for its covert operations. In 1973, the Washington Star-News reported that CIA had enlisted more than thirty Americans working abroad as journalists, citing an internal CIA inquiry ordered by CIA director William E. Colby.[13]
Congressional Investigations[edit]
A wide range of CIA operations were examined in a series of Congressional investigations from 1975 to 1976 including CIA ties with journalists. The most extensive discussion of CIA relations with news media from these investigations is in the Church Committee's final report, published in April 1976. The report covered CIA ties with both foreign and domestic news media.
For foreign news media, the report concluded that:
The CIA currently maintains a network of several hundred foreign individuals around the world who provide intelligence for the CIA and at times attempt to influence opinion through the use of covert propaganda. These individuals provide the CIA with direct access to a large number of newspapers and periodicals, scores of press services and news agencies, radio and television stations, commercial book publishers, and other foreign media outlets.[14]
For domestic media, the report states:
Approximately 50 of the [Agency] assets are individual American journalists or employees of U.S. media organizations. Of these, fewer than half are "accredited" by U.S. media organizations ... The remaining individuals are non-accredited freelance contributors and media representatives abroad ... More than a dozen United States news organizations and commercial publishing houses formerly provided cover for CIA agents abroad. A few of these organizations were unaware that they provided this cover.[14]

So remember folks. If you are going to stalk your ex online either use your friend’s computer or a vpn.

Look, you guys are ridiculous. This would never be used against innocent people, just people who disagree with the administration according to any random federal agent or bureaucrat. And even if they do track you you wouldn't face charges unless you were some kind of radical-like a white small businessman. a Republican, someone who voted for Trump or made a statement in his defense, someone who did something illegal like disobey a Democrat. You guys need to chill.

If Google is a state-actor, it needs to be bound by the Constitution. Period. Using private business as a workaround for government overreach is a very dangerous place to go.

These communist never trusted anyone, not even their own family. These type are paranoid that people are always trying to screw them. So they resort to screwing the others. It would make it easier if someone would tell them their own commies are saying things about them. Try turning them against one another.
