What are you talking about? This entire thread is about Google demonetizing certain videos because of what is in their view objectionable content.
You seem to have lost the point of this post entirely.
Just wow.
You utter blather showing your ignorance on the basics of what legal entity Google is, and then when I patiently educate you to correct your ignorance you insult me.
A simple “thank you” would be nice. But fine. Stay ignorant if you choose.
Our conversation began when I corrected the error you made in post #8 where you asserted, wrongly, that Google is a private company. But you admitted you do not know the difference between a public and private company in post #59, where you also asserted that “Nobody, N-O-B-O-D-Y is entitled to receive Google’s money.”
Really? How about the share holders who own Google? Don’t you think they are entitled to “Google’s money.”
What? Do you think Google drives a car home from work every day, eats dinner, watches some T.V. and goes to bed?
Google is a corporation. It is owned by Alphabet. Alphabet is publicly traded. It’s shares are in the portfolio of many people. There are almost a quarter of a billion shares divided among a little over 2000 “owners.” But among these owners are mutual funds that may include retirement funds of many individuals:

Ownership of companies such as Google is ENTIRELY the point. The job of the government is to protect the rights of citizens. When a group of rich people, through multi-national corporations, are able to trample those rights, it is time for the government to act.
Google is publicly traded. That means it already IS regulated. Such regulations should go further to protect the free speech rights of all citizens.
Also, Google, like many mega corporations, exceeds the letter and intent of the intellectual property rights provisions in the Constitution. Under these powers Congress has the right to grant persons (including corporations) LIMITED monopolies. Monopolies infringe on rights, except by the voluntary consent of the citizens.
All of these things are very critical to the issue of free speech. But again, if you wish to remain ignorant then do so. But it would be a good idea to be aware of the limitations of your knowledge. See my tagline for further details.
When companies like Google censure content because it is advocating violence or criminal activity, that is not a violation of free speech. When managers decide to play politics or pick which religions they support or do not, and censure those who do not share their views, the company should have no access to capital from the free markets, nor governmental protection of their monopolies.
The left has been using OUR money, in the form of tax dollars and in the form of publicly traded retirement funds, to wage war against us. If you really want to put a stop to it, this is how.
