Damore’s ten-page manifesto, which was met by an immediate backlash, described a climate of fear, in which employees who challenge prevailing leftist narratives at the company are faced with immediate threats to their career. Damore’s own experience appears to confirm this.
Breitbart News is exclusively publishing a series of interviews with current and former Google employees who contacted us in the wake of the manifesto’s publication.
The interview series, entitled “Rebels of Google,” will be published in full over the coming days. Because every employee who spoke to us fears for their job if their identities were made public, we have provided aliases in place of their real names.
In the first interview of the series, a Google employee (alias “Hal”) spoke of witch-hunts and intolerance at Google, as well as dysfunction at the company’s upper echelons.
Our second interview, published below, is the account of a former Google engineer (alias “Emmett”) who spent several years at the company. You can find a full transcript of our interview here.
We asked Emmett if he could corroborate allegations that employees within Google’s Ad Sales department have expressed “a great deal of sympathy” with the Sleeping Giants campaign, which has sought to deny ad revenue to alternative media sites including Breitbart News and The Rebel Media.

I've read about the censoring, but still see a lot of conservative links in Google searchers. Hence, why I still use it.
Once I cannot find what I am looking for, then I will quit using them. It's that simple.
Agree. I remember a bumper sticker that I saw that says “Life is all fun and games until someone divides by zero”.
Google will soon learn something very similar if they don’t get this crap under control.
I stopped using Google years ago because I don’t want them gathering my data.
They’re very good at it. It’s their business.
Yes if a leftist company the will first “feel” the void and then “fill” the void;) You are correct on both accounts.
Google knows more about you than the IRS does.
How the hell can any serious researcher use Google if it is a mere clone of Headline News? That site has been trashed by left wing hysteria
The biggest impact I’ve seen in Youtube, which Google owns.
They allow many people to still upload content, but turned off ads if their far left “trusted flaggers” say this is objectionable or the subjects are considered “controversial”.
They throw up hurdles to a lot of conservative content being seen like rating it as 18-only, so content doesn’t show up unless you’re logged in and over 18. Now teens and casual searchers don’t see it.
The most egregious is their recent plan to use a redirect. If your content is considered not politically correct, they’ll let you upload the video without payment and without social media functionality AND put a re-education video in front of it.
This is what Google is doing to their biggest social media site in the name of trust and safety. This is what they believe is necessary, appropriate and moral.
That’s the beauty of a capitalist economy.
A consumer can fire a business that doesn’t provide the product/service they want and hire one that does.
Google does censor results in China.
They have the technology, it’s just when and where they choose to apply it.
Google has been doing this for years but very few people have noticed.
If anyone wonders about Google’s propaganda just enter “American mathematicians” or “American scientists”. You will be shocked, I guarantee.
I started using DuckDuckGo six months ago on my iphone and don’t miss the goog at all.
Google is only as good as the direction you give it.
That’s why I try to be as precise as I can be.
Agreed: Once they block specific searches/sites/keywords, I’ll find something else.
WOW!
Changed my default to DuckDuckGo
Most American mathematicians and scientists, especially the top images, are black. Who knew?
I use Bing whenever possible.
I am sick and tired of the relentless PROPAGANDA!
It is making me more determined to resist it.
It is sickening, disgusting, dangerous, FALSE, and OBVIOUS!
I know I'm not the only one turned off by it! Every time I turn on the internet or the TV, I'm barraged with LEFTIST PROPAGANDA! I am SICK OF IT! The people behind it are making me more and more angry--and the effect they're having is the OPPOSITE of what they want.
I have my search page set to Bing. Yesterday I switched to DuckDuckGo on both my laptop and desktop.
Leftist information fascists.
I saw this on 4chan. Couldn’t believe it myself at first.
