Let me begin with a statement: if you’re still active on Sundar Pichai-Jack Dorsey-Mark Zuckerberg’s digital ghettos, and by that I mean Google search-engine, YouTube, Twitter or Facebook, after everything that’s happened lately, i.e. all the blatant bias, censorship and all the privacy scandals, instead of migrating to alt-tech platforms (minds, gab, bitchute, real.video, duckduckgo etc), well, we don’t stand a chance in the war with the left. Now, that we’ve cleared that out, today we have more Kafkaesque news for our readers, as Facebook decided to fact check itself into oblivion via artificial intelligence helped by natural (human) stupidity....

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg said on Thursday that the social network is better equipped to fight potential interference efforts ahead of this year's election than it was in 2016. “In 2016, our election security efforts prepared us for traditional cyberattacks like phishing, malware, and hacking,” he wrote in a blog post. “We identified those and notified the government and those affected. What we didn't expect were foreign actors launching coordinated information operations with networks of fake accounts spreading division and misinformation. “Today, Facebook is better prepared for these kinds of attacks,” he continued. In the lengthy note to users, Zuckerberg...

It can be watched in full at Breitbart who say “It can and should be watched in full in order to get the full context of the meeting and the statements made News virtually impossible to suppress: Even with all its political power and might over largely unsuspecting masses, Tech giant Google cannot steal elections.

On Sept. 12, European Parliament voted for the Copyright Directive. This updating of online copyright tries to make certain media companies and publishers are paid for their work when shared on Facebook or YouTube and aggregated by such sites as Google News. Articles 11 and 13 of this law has been harshly criticized both by internet experts and companies. Article 11 grants publications copyright over any online content sharing. In practice, this means sites could charge services like Hacker News and Reddit for aggregating their stories. This is being called a link tax. Article 13 requires content sharing sites to...

Attorney General Jeff Sessions is reportedly considering an investigation into the social media giants, according to Bloomberg. Sessions will have a meeting with the state attorney generals from Alabama, Nebraska, Tennessee, Louisiana and Texas later this month, all of whom have been reviewing the sites’ practices. The meeting is intended to determine whether “there’s a federal case to be made against companies such as Alphabet Inc.’s Google, Facebook, and Twitter for violating consumer or antitrust laws,” according to Bloomberg. “Those are the kind of resources that we’re going need to break these companies up,” Louisiana AG Jeff Landry stated in...

HUNTSVILLE, Ala - Altoona, Iowa. It's a town of about 18,000 people. It may not seem likely, but it has something in common with Huntsville...Facebook. Facebook announced plans to build a data center in Huntsville on Thursday. And in 2014 the social media giant built a data center in the small, midwestern town. WHNT News 19 took a look at Altoona and is taking action to find out what Huntsville's future could look like.

One shining beacon of light, however, has been Mike Rowe; former host of Dirty Jobs, and outspoken American whose views don’t always line up with the liberal media’s. The problem is, unlike some of the other blathering idiots that we are forced to endure on television, Rowe is eloquent, thoughtful, fair, and honest. Those traits are so unforgivably rare these days that even the left-leaning media cannot deny what he has to say. Now, 17 years to the day removed from one of our darkest hours, Mike Rowe has spoken again, and he’s made a suggestion that the nation can...

Folks, my friend Robert Gagnon, the world’s foremost authority on the Bible and homosexuality, last week penned this critique of the Revoice conference going on right now in St. Louis. Revoice aims to recognize and celebrate LGBTQ-identified celibate Christians as a “sexual minority” in the Church. It has been widely challenged by orthodox Christians for undermining Scriptural truth; see this article on Revoice’s speakers. After publishing his piece on Facebook, Gagnon was was put in “Facebook jail” for 24 hours–the second time this has happened to him in recent weeks. That’s very troubling, as is the fact I and several...

“They told me nothing or for how long,” Sabo told TheWrap about his exileRight-wing street artist Sabo has been suspended from Twitter, with his @UnsavoryAgents going offline on Friday. “They told me nothing or for how long,” Sabo told TheWrap, when asked if he was notified if it was a permanent or temporary removal. His account had approximately 30,000 followers. Twitter has not responded to multiple requests for comment from TheWrap. Sabo has been critical of big tech companies in the past, and his website includes a “F— Zuck 2020” poster, aimed at Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s rumored political aspirations....

While you and I were sleeping, the street artist Sabo was busy at work on the streets of San Francisco waging his private war against the excesses and duplicity of Silicon Valley. You might remember his last campaign in New York, exposing the incestuous relationship between Zuckerberg and Schumer: #ZuckSchumer. His new target is Google boss Sundar Pichai, a man last in the headlines for firing Google engineer James Damore for airing his views on diversity inside the business in his infamous Google memo. (Essentially, if you are straight, white or male you are at the back of the queue...

Matt Drudge, the founder of the highly influential news site the Drudge Report, trolled Obama in a rare tweet on Friday after the former president crawled out of his hole to trash Trump. Obama gave a speech at the University of Illinois on Friday. He trashed Trump then arrogantly took credit for Trump’s booming economy. The former president kicked off his campaign tour to help the Democrats win this fall in the midterms–only he will do them more damage than good. Obama was a horrible president. He is the only president in history to never see a single year of...

President Obama lectured President Trump, accused him of racism, and attempted to take credit for President Trump’s economic miracle. But Barack Obama’s worst lie was his remarks on Benghazi. Barack Obama: “The politics of division and paranoia has found a home, unfortunately, in the Republican party. … they’ve embraced wild conspiracy theories by those surrounding Benghazi. Or my birth certificate.” Benghazi hero Kris Paronto responded to the former president. Kris has not forgotten about the men lost as Obama did nothing. Apparently Kris ‘Tanto’ Paronto can’t defend against the lies so Twitter promptly put him in a timeout. Twitter did...

In a video published on Infowars.com on Saturday, Alex Jones declared that “digital martial law” is being put in place to “shut down all free speech that is not pro-leftist and pro-democratic party.” “We are going under digital martial law just 58 days out from the (midterm) election,” Jones said in the video. “This is authoritarianism. Every prominent conservative or nationalist or capitalist or pro-Trump person I know has either been shadowbanned or completely banned on Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, you name it. They’re going after prominent conservative, Jewish activist David Horowitz and taking away their credit card processing … They...

Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey was in the hot seat Wednesday before the House Energy and Commerce Committee over his company’s practices on content moderation. Both Reps. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA) and Michael Burgess (R-TX) asked about the excessive amount of time it took the company to take down a tweet threatening Meghan McCain despite many people reporting it.An image of McCain crying by her father’s casket was doctored to show a gun trained at her with the caption: “America, this one’s for you.”Many Twitter users, including Meghan McCain’s husband Ben Domenech, complained as the image was left up for five...
