Tucker has it right. GOOGLE is search, therefore it's a monopoly, and subject to Anti Trust violations.

W.T.F.

Trump has turned conservatives into anti 1st Amendment, big government, regulation supporters.

The country has lost its mind.

I'm done using this site as a vent for all my life's frustrations and typing crazy shite...

So, I'll just say that's a simple minded way to look at this.

I must be confused. I thought Google was the corporation banning free speech, therefor anti 1A...

Anyway, why are liberals always going after the NRA and wanting the govt to regulate or destroy them?

Hypocrite much?

Google has plenty of competition and is certainly no more a censor than is the New York Times or the Washington Post who are also in the business of selling advertising.

Anyone that wants the government to start deciding which companies are right and wrong in their content are too naive to be taken seriously.




I wouldn't' call it competition, they're all cut from the same cloth.

I'll count you on team "I'm ok with internet search engines using algorithms to promote specific and information while making it harder to access other viewpoints and information."

no way

but google should be forced to be transparent if they are going to alter or shape search results. you think you are searching all of the internet for something with a google search and you are unknowingly searching through a filter that they control.

I thought we were discussing media (or press). Aren't these entities getting censored "media" or press? Hmmmm.

1) Google is not the govt. There is no 1A involved.

2) Google does not control the internet. The websites still exist, you can still get to them unhindered, even on Chrome.
