Like so many of my fellow freepers, I have real intellectual problems with Google and the way it operates, but I've tended to stick with them because their news search function was extremely helpful. But they've changed things and their news search is much less helpful now.
A friend of my son LOST IT when the announcement of the WFM purchase by Amazon was given-—he cancelled his Amazon Prime account that day.

Do anti-trust regulations apply only to literally exclusive product-source companies?
I stopped using Google because of the irritating ad for Chrome that constantly pops up.
This is where I search now:
Google hides results from anything they don’t like.
Period.
I remember when AT&T’s takeover of DirecTV was being vetted. The claim was that it would create a monopoly in satellite TV availability. It was hilarious. In the first place, there was Dish. In the second place, dominance in only one means of delivery while earth bound cable TV is a massive provider, was risible.
I also remember when Eastman Kodak, which at one time was as close to being a monopoly as you could get in film sales and photofinishing, was forced under threat of anti-trust to charge more for their products to allow competition to come in selling for less. What happened was that people preferred the yellow box, happily paid excessive amounts for the products, and Kodak laughed all the way to the bank.
Capitalism in tooth and claw allows for unfettered competition. Those who provide the best for less win.
Wow
You don’t see the issue?
Man U must be 2.0 breathalyzer on virtue signaling
Google white couple and the images are nearly all mixed race or homosexual couples
Google black couples and it’s what it should be...black couples
Yet you don’t see what the issue is
Nutz
Try white couple on DuckDuckGo. Get the kids outta the room.

Ut oh.
Afraid to look.
That bad, huh?
The issue is simple - miscegenation.
Goolag, TV shows, ads, movies, etc are all pushing it.
We are puppets on their strings.
It won’t be long that if you refuse to date someone of a different race you will be publicly exposed and tarred and feathered as a racist.
I’ve switched to Duck Duck Go.
No t much better than google - I think they use google and others to get their results. They’re a search aggregators.
Agreed.
Google is dead as a scientific tool that the internet was. Google is now just another facebook niche leftist boutique, a scam.
You already are here on this forum by some
Like I said before, I don't use Google myself.
Just use another search engine if you don't like their results. Nobody is stopping you, including me.
Why everybody is up in arms over this I don't understand.
Raises my BP for nothing.
You’re full of it no offense
It’s no big deal the worlds largest search engine editorialized results to that degree that it replaces logical results with the complete opposites to brainwash
Imagine you type in Nazis but instead get results comprised mostly of IDF soldiers and soldierettes
Problem with that or again no big deal right?
