Apple, Amazon and Meta, which owns Facebook and Instagram, also face antitrust cases.

Never gonna happen under Democrat bull$hit administration!

Google has bought and paid the Democrat masters!

Now under Trump, he’ll split the baby, end the add monopoly, keep the national security ability to control the web.

That’s because Trump is smart.

After all Google did for the Democrats?

You just can’t trust the government.

My opinion, it should be broken up. Split search, YouTube and Adsense into 3 separate entities. At least that much. Maybe also split up their gmail and related functions (their version of excel, word, collaboration etc) into another entity.

Split Android off, see how fast that steaming pile sinks to the bottom without cash coming from Goog.

Imagine being on the team of accountants meant to check the fiscal health and status of Google-Zilla!

Nuke Google into glass from space.

It’s the ONLY way to be sure!

I don’t know what’s happened to the Google search engine, but it barely works anymore. Aside from Google being evil, at least the search engine used to work. It was so much better than its competitors that I tried multiple times to replace it with something else, only to reluctantly return. But something has definitely changed, because now it never gives me any decent search results…on anything. Half the results page is just sponsored ads and the rest is filled with links that are shockingly off base compared to my search terms.

It feels like they just abandoned it and quit trying.

If they want to “break up” somebody, let it be these big investment firms.

Bust it into a million pieces. Shackle Google itself and make them sell off YouTube, Android, their app store. Then bust up Amazon and Meta (ie Facebook) next.

Here’s where google has gotten scary. I bought a google phone for the camera system. I don’t upload pictures. The whole integrated ad system of google is now scary. I used a new inspection tool at work. I didn’t says it’s name or take a picture of it. I did use the flashlight function on my phone. next time I did a search on google, an ad for this exact item popped up at the top of my search. Way too coincidental and big brother for my taste. maybe I should buy an Iphone next. /s

Anything pro Trump or anti lefty

I use Yandex

I know it’s russkie but it’s like daily mail

More honest about our searches

Remember in the old days of unencumbered or unrestricted slow internet?

Search results were demand oriented for ranking results

Not picked to promote the woke narrative like now

The Borg it all is

McAfee..which I don’t use..is somehow on my computer. It periodically changes my default search to Yahoo search engine. I have to go in and change it every time.

Limit the access to electricity.
Make Google a fee based service without advertising revenue.

There are many search engines out there. How does Google have a monopoly? Anyone can choose the platform of their choice.
