Shares of Google, Facebook and Twitter traded lower on Tuesday after President Trump accused the tech leaders of bias against conservative voices, warning they are “treading on very, very troubled territory.”
“Google is really taking advantage of a lot of people and I think that’s a very serious thing and a very serious charge,” Trump said after an Oval Office meeting with FIFA President Gianni Infantino. “I think what Google and what others are doing, if you look at what’s going on at Twitter, if you look at what’s going on at Facebook – they better be careful, because you can’t do that to people.”
“Google and Twitter and Facebook, they’re really treading on very, very troubled territory and they have to be careful. It’s not fair to large portions of the population,” Trump added, noting that his administration has “literally thousands and thousands of complaints coming in” about the tech companies’ practices.

A President who fights back! A President who fights for US!
I believe that the left learned about Fox News and their impact and are actively fighting for control of all ‘on-line social media’.
They want all they disagree with labeled alt-right.
Good point.
The irony is that if they'd just knock off the shadow banning, de-platforming, one-sided "hate speech" enforcements, search engine manipulations, and all the other horse**t, most of us would be happy.
Not long ago Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey posted about all the convoluted procedures Twitter was putting in place to filter and sort tweets. The overwhelming response was, "why not just simply ban the stuff that's illegal and leave the rest alone?"
Good one!
Media headlines: Trump warns against blocking White Supremacist accounts on Facebook, Twitter, Google.
Well, I’m so glad that Google isn’t mentally ill or anything . . .
I’ve done my best to avoid Google searches from the get go.. I used Dogpile, then Bing, and now DuckDuckGo for the past year or so.
They are private companies and should be free to ban who they like, provided they do not commit wire fraud by shadow banning people.
I’m sure they can be superceded by conservative friendly websites in short order.
I’m sure EU regulators know how to deal with bad tech company practices.
They are monopolies - different rules apply
You are a comedian, right?
‘Dogpile’ needs a better name.
Censorship is a very serious issue. I am glad that Trump is on top of it. I am glad I voted for him.
They need to either agree with the public town square petition or they need a nice heavy dose of federal regulation. You censor, we regulate the chit out of you. Your choice.
This just nails them dead to rights.
I did a google search on a recent study showing how a lot of crime guns in Maryland are from Maryland. Wouldn’t appear anywhere even when I worded it 4-5 different ways. Then I did a DuckDuckGo search using the exact same language and it was the very first link that popped up.
Do not even try to tell me Google is not censoring for political purposes.
Thank you. Pretty nice. There’s also one that is just the pic but has the labels up by their heads. I’ll have to find that one, too.
