Billionaire globalist George Soros is planning to eliminate the majority of Trump supporters from social media before the 2020 election, according to a leaked document. The 49 page document outlines plans by Soros to exert his influence, via his immense personal wealth, to pressure Big Tech to censor and purge pro-Trump journalists, citizens and outlets ahead of the next Presidential election. "A confidential, 49-page memo for defeating Trump by working with the major social-media platforms to eliminate "right wing propaganda and fake news" was presented in January 2017 by Media Matters founder David Brock at a retreat in Florida with...

A net neutrality bill that would prohibit internet providers from a host of discriminatory practices cleared the California Assembly on Thursday, setting up a potential showdown with the Trump administration over the rules of the road for the internet. The legislation, which passed in a 59-18 vote, will now go to the Senate, where a vote is expected next week. It would then go to Governor Jerry Brown. California is also the largest state to pass net neutrality legislation in response to the Republican-led FCC’s move late last year to dismantle many of the existing rules. Democrats have seized on...

<p>Apart from building the wall, President Trump’s most important act as president so far was his attack on internet censorship this week.</p> <p>The Left controls all the cultural institutions — the establishment media, corporate America, Hollywood, Silicon Valley, public schools and universities. The only breach in their total dominion of the flow of information is the internet.</p>

• For US President Donald Trump and some of his allies, the idea that there's a liberal bias in tech produces the same gut reaction as gun control and immigration. • The news website Axios reported Thursday that Trump was not about to back down in his war on Google and other firms, with one unnamed source calling it "an issue that's here to stay." • Silicon Valley seems resigned to the long fight. "There will be no fixing this," a tech executive told The New York Times. President Donald Trump and his allies are getting ready for a long...

If you are tired of Google and Silicon Valley censorship, I suggest that you do as I do: 1. For search, I use duckduckgo.com. You can add this as an app to your phone and use it on your PC as well. It acts like the old google search and claims not to track or show bias. 2. For my browser, instead of Chrome, Explorer or Safari, I use Brave.com. Again, no tracking and no bias that I am aware of. 3. For news, I go to realclearpolitics.com and its sister sites such as realclearworld.com. Here you will find links...

President Donald Trump continued challenging big tech companies on Tuesday, warning them about censoring content from conservatives. “I think what Google and what others are doing – if you look at what is going on with Twitter and if you look at what’s going on in Facebook, they better be careful because you can’t do that to people,” Trump said. “You can’t do it.”

I have a personal domain since 1997. In recent years I've been hosting it at HostExcellence.com. Today my email stopped working. When I went to HostExcellence.com, this is the notice I received: ixwebhosting.com, hostexcellence.com, and cloudbyix.com are closed for business Sorry we've closed our doors, but if you were an existing customer, we've migrated you to one of our other brands, please see below. Based on the type of service I had with them, I was apparently migrated to site5.com, but I can't log in there, either. After I tried, I realized it could be a phishing attack. But that...

Tech Ping: Using BRAVE Browser. Problem With It Scrolling Too Fast. Fix? Cannot find a fix for this. Am using WIN 7. Anyone else run into this. I love the browser but the scrolling thing makes it unusable at times.

Lawyers say the Kremlin is trying to force people to think twice before sharing opinions online -- one of the last remaining spaces where the opposition is relatively free to organise. "It turns out that for a harmless joke, anybody who doesn't agree with our country's leadership can be prosecuted," Nikitin's lawyer Maxim Kamakin told AFP... "It seems that in our country only optimists have the right to exist." In one of the incriminating posts from Nikitin, who is disabled and currently unemployed, a father crudely tells his son that nothing will be getting better in Russia any time soon....

An Iranian propaganda campaign created fake Bernie Sanders supporters online, Facebook disclosed Tuesday. In a press release, the social-media giant said it had removed 652 pages associated with political-influence campaigns traced to Iran, including coordinated inauthentic behavior that originated in Iran and targeted people across multiple internet services in the Middle East, Latin America, U.K., and U.S.” The cybersecurity company FireEye, which first alerted Facebook to the influence campaign months ago, wrote in a separate posting on its site that it had traced the campaign—including posts from supposed “American liberals supportive of U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders”—to Iran through email addresses...

YouTube just added an "information panel" to all my videos about climate change.We at Stossel TV do weekly videos on many controversial topics, but apparently YouTube thinks climate change is special.The information panel seems benign -- just a link to a Wikipedia page about global warming -- and YouTube puts it on all climate change videos.But Wikipedia's page was captured by activists. It's biased in favor of desperate alarmism. You'd have to read carefully to know that the billions we're spending now to fight climate change will make little difference.The YouTube information panel doesn't mention the Climategate scandal in which...

It won’t be long before we are silenced – banished from YouTube for merely telling it like it is. The war to silence truth seekers and truth tellers continues unabated where opinions contrary to the accepted narrative are not permitted. Just a few weeks ago, the Globalists behind the Tech Tyrants of Silicone Valley dropped their first “digital nuke” on the largest alternative media platform in existence – InfoWars. They banished Alex Jones and InfoWars in Orwellian fashion, also preventing years of intellectual property to be accessed under the pretense of “hate speech.” Those who rejoice in the banishment of...

Editor's note: This column was co-authored by Calvin Beisner.Curiously, the mainstream media seem to have ignored the story, but it’s an important one. Buzzfeed reported August 7 that “YouTube Is Fighting Back Against Climate Misinformation.”As of July 9, “YouTube is now adding fact checks to videos that question climate change … as a part of its ongoing effort to combat the rampant misinformation and conspiratorial fodder on its platform.”But neither YouTube nor Wikipedia, the source of its “fact check,” is qualified to function as unassailable arbiter calling balls and strikes over what is or isn’t fact in any given field of...

What’s become abundantly clear over the past few months is that liberals are now jumping on the anti-fake news bandwagon and using it as an excuse to censor political speech that doesn’t align with their radical agenda. This strategy is perhaps most prominent on social media and various websites across the Internet, including Facebook, Twitter and YouTube, and is implemented by teams of leftists and extremists like George Soros who show zero regards for the freedom of speech outlined in the First Amendment. It’s as if the ability to control what information is spread across the Internet and what information...

Facebook on Friday issued an apology to PragerU for “mistakenly” removing several videos and limiting the reach of others. PragerU Aug 17, 2018 BREAKING: We're being heavily censored on @Facebook.

Facebook We mistakenly removed these videos and have restored them because they don't break our standards. This will reverse any reduction in content distribution you’ve experienced.

Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey said on Saturday that he "fully admit[s]" Twitter employees share a largely left-leaning bias after facing accusations that conservatives are discriminated against on the social media platform. In an interview that aired Saturday on CNN, Dorsey said his company has a responsibility to be open about its political viewpoints, but to operate without bias when applying content policies to users. "We need to constantly show that we are not adding our own bias, which I fully admit is...is more left-leaning," Dorsey says. "But the real question behind the question is, are we doing something according to...

President Donald Trump took aim at social media platforms early Saturday morning, criticizing them for suppressing and even attempting to silence conservative voices. “They are closing down the opinions of many people on the Right …” he complained in a tweet. Trump’s tweets followed the news that Facebook had been caught outright blocking videos from the conservative organization PragerU The president continued by claiming that censorship is “a very dangerous thing & absolutely impossible to police,” pointing out the fact that although he has often complained about “Fake News,” he has never moved to silence his critics.

The Trump administration today charged Facebook Inc. with violating housing discrimination laws. The social media company allows advertisers to divert housing listings away users who mention terms such as “assistance dog” and “mobility scooter,” or who live in certain zip codes, in violation of the Fair Housing Act, HUD alleged. In addition, the Justice Department today joined a lawsuit against Facebook, saying in a “statement of interest” that the company discriminates by helping advertisers pick preferred users. The Fair Housing Act prohibits discrimination in housing transactions including print and online advertisement on the basis of race, religion or sex, among...

Conservative non-profit group PragerU appears to be facing Facebook censorship, as many recent posts from group are suffering from a 99.9999 percent drop in engagement based on Facebook’s own dashboard. The Social Media Masters of the Universe also pulled down two PragerU videos, which it labeled “hate speech.” Echoing the apparent page limitation of conservative commentating duo Diamond and Silk, the conservative non-profit group PragerU — which produces educational videos on conservative issues — appears to have found its Facebook page’s reach drastically limited. The group’s Facebook page boasts three million followers, but its most recent posts have been seen...
