Google de-monetizes pioneering Christian news site WND
World Net Daily ^ | November 2, 2021 | WND Staff

Posted on 11/03/2021 9:30:59 AM PDT by fwdude

Over the last few years, Big Tech has unleashed many different attacks on WND, the pioneering Christian journalism organization now in its 25th year. From classifying WND as an "extremist group," to writing WND out of its search algorithms, to de-monetizing WND's YouTube channel, to confining WND to "Facebook jail" for over a year, the attacks never end.

However, as of this week, Big Tech has upped its game: Google has now officially de-monetized WND.

Well they must sell ads on their own that’s all. Like the newspapers used to.

Put up an ad: “advertise your business on WND! A million hits daily! Click this link!”

Google Adsense can start becoming irrelevant. Lead the way WND

I notice that to search bitchute from my desktop, I just type “b” and I’m there. From my iPad, I have to type in the whole thing including “.com”. It’s a pain.

The lowlife subhuman filth, called Cancel Culture, marches on.

All,this big tech censoring may have a reverse effect by driving independents to the right.

Better off without them. Websites are better off just not doing business with Google anyhow. Put up a donation link, and advertise with “static” adds without being overbearing with pop ups etc for Christian owned businesses. take it from their hands and hand it back to the Christians.

Strength in sticking together when done right.

Only thing I use of Googles is Google Maps. I like the functionality over the competition. But I used DuckDuckGo for all other searches.

Google is showing stupidity in it’s later stage of life.
WND will gladly be welcomed by TRUMP’S TRUTH SOCIAL as it is
one site that seldom wavered from the original stance that
democracy is fleeting and d’rats are winning in destroying our great nation.

GOD BLESS WND, a voice to be heard.

DuckDuckGo is far superior to Google.

I switched away from Google 4 years ago.

Google needs to be stripped of Android, which is one of the top 2 smartphone systems.

The problem is webmasters being lazy more so than phone apps. There seems to be an unwritten rule that Google adsense and Google analytics is a must have standard for websites.

Google Analytics is the number one hidden data information mining 3rd party API out there and they resell this data.

And Google adsense is a money making exchange for that same private data, They pay out 10 cents on the dollar they make from the data information they gather and sell. And the government is their best customer for that data.

Both services can be done in house on the same server and not need a third party like Google. And now Google has decided how you use your own site just because you use their services.

Just like MS owning your computer forever because you have Windows.

There are other third party ad revenue services who are straight up and do business up front without hanky panky.

Me too...and this censorship - cancel sh*t has got to stop - ONE WAY or ANOTHER!

FREEDOM OF SPEECH must return to our land!

Why so much of the censorship - cause they can persuade anyone to their side with there unvarnished f’d up ideas!

Starve the beast!

I deleted, feckless book, twaddle, instacrap, etc. I use goober only if I must.

Strangely enough, I used to think of goober as the lesser of two evils as compared to a$$le.

Google should have de-monetized World News Daily Report, the fake news site that pretends to be World Net Daily.
