...In a post and a press release, the chief executive discussed Facebook Inc.’s initiatives to promote vaccines...For more than a month, Facebook researchers warned that comments on vaccine-related posts—often factual posts of the sort Facebook sought to promote—were filled with antivaccine rhetoric aimed at undermining their message, internal documents reviewed by The Wall Street Journal show. ...Users were seeing comments on vaccine-related posts 775 million times a day, the memo said, and Facebook researchers worried the large proportion of negative comments could influence perceptions of the vaccines’ safety. ...Despite Mr. Zuckerberg’s effort, a cadre of antivaccine activists flooded the network...

After being temporarily suspended from Twitter for questioning the COVID vaccine, pop star Nicki Minaj encouraged Americans to “open your * eyes” to the censorship currently happening in the West, adding that her ban made her think that “there’s something bigger” going on. Minaj, the Trinidadian-born pop star, had made global news in recent days, for tweeting in support of medical freedom, explaining that someone she knows became “impotent” after taking one of the controversial COVID vaccines and then urging her followers to pray and weigh the benefits of getting vaccinated. In response, globalist media outlets became enraged at the...

This is a follow up to a story from last month, with a new update as well. We told you about a company called FakeMaskUSA which fell victim to the tech tyrants, in this case PayPal. Our original reporting can be found below, but long story short is FakeMaskUSA had some $90,0000 in company assets that they had no means of recovering. This seems to be the way these companies do business, with them taking punitive action and for those punished having no means to fight back. For example, Facebook is famous for suspending accounts of people who violate their...

Sometimes people forget that politics is not like math or science – at least this is something that I am often guilty of. In Math a number, theorem, or proof mean something specific and reproducible. However, in politics the meaning of things is both malleable and blurry. For instance, Sen. Grassley, a Republican from Iowa, is currently participating in policy negotiations around legislation that Sen. Bernie Sanders D-VT (Someone who is left of most Democrats) is excited about. The negotiations are over antitrust bills, and while it sounds like Grassley is only in talks surrounding one of the bills –...

The program aims to advise voters which candidates are in the best position to...

Last week, Reuters reported based on two anonymous sources that Amazon Web Services, which controls 40 percent of web hosting in the world, “plans to take a more proactive approach to determine what types of content violate its cloud service policies.”“Over the coming months, Amazon will hire a small group of people in its Amazon Web Services (AWS) division to develop expertise and work with outside researchers to monitor for future threats, one of the sources familiar with the matter said.

Google algorithms are automatically selecting videos from news channels to be censored from Australian viewers that it deems offensive, inaccurate or dangerous, a media diversity inquiry has heard. But the tech giant has defended the move, saying its parameters were set by global “trust and safety teams” based on the best evolving advice from governments, health authorities and community standards. The admission came during an inquiry by the Senate Environment and Communications References Committee into media diversity chaired by Senator Sarah Hanson-Young and a one-week YouTube ban on Sky News and the removal of 23 clips last year related to...

GoDaddy, the web hosting service, has notified Texas Right to Life that it has 24 hours to find a new hosting service because the organization's anti-abortion "whistleblower" website violates the company's terms of service regarding people's privacy.

The website, prolifewhistleblower.com, allows people to leave anonymous tips reporting doctors, clinics or other individuals that may have helped women get an abortion after a fetal heartbeat is detected. However, GoDaddy's policies said that its...

They've decided that free speech is a hoary, harpsichord-y, un-hip notion they'd like to see stuffed down the memory hole. National Public Radio, a government-funded outlet, is now shilling against free speech. According to Matt Taibbi, who is himself on the left, via Substack: The guests for NPR's just-released On The Media episode about the dangers of free speech included Andrew Marantz, author of an article called, "Free Speech is Killing Us"; P.E. Moskowitz, author of "The Case Against Free Speech"; Susan Benesch, director of the "Dangerous Speech Project"; and Berkeley professor John Powell, whose contribution was to rip John...

Why does government seem to control so much of our lives now? What significant changes happened in the past 15 years that created a social shift and allowed government to influence almost every facet of our activity? Why has the previously ordinary become so complex? Why is it more difficult to be comfortably invisible and just live out the creed of pursuing ‘life, liberty and happiness’? What is behind all this? We were not sleeping, we were wide awake. Perhaps distracted, yes; but we were wide awake when something shifted. A Fourth Branch of Government was quietly created, and technology...

Google reported to the Australian federal government that it has removed around 800,000 YouTube videos concerning COVID-19, and 275 million COVID-19 apps from across its platform as part of its $1 billion (US $726 million) global campaign to “counter COVID-19 misinformation.” It has also launched a US $3 million fund to wipe out alleged vaccine misinformation. Google regards official government information from national health departments or the World Health Organization as reliable sources. Meanwhile, the WHO has noted that information changes over time as the world “learns more about the virus.” Lucinda Longcroft, Google’s director of government affairs and public...

Twitter has banned conservative author Alex Berenson due to violations of its COVID-19 misinformation rules, the social media giant confirmed on Sunday. “The account was permanently suspended for repeated violations of our COVID-19 misinformation rules,” a Twitter spokesperson said in a statement to The Hill. Berenson said in a Substack post on Saturday that he had been banned from Twitter. “This was the tweet that did it. Entirely accurate. I can’t wait to hear what a jury will make of this,” he said. “Meantime, guess you’ll be getting more Substacks.” In a now-deleted tweet, Berenson compared the vaccine to a...

The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation is partnered with a self-described “socialist” internet foundation run by the branch of the Chinese Communist Party spearheading its digital campaign to censor factual narratives and push fraudulent information about COVID-19. The two foundations inked a memorandum of understanding in 2015, pledging cooperation in areas including “public health”: According to the cooperation memorandum of understanding, the two parties will rely on new technologies such as the Internet to promote pragmatic cooperation in the fields of charity, public health, and international development, and work together to improve the quality of life of the poor and...

Governments around the world are implementing vaccine mandates and vaccine passports with varying degrees of severity, but all of them are shooting for the endgame of universal human inoculation. Mainstream media and Big Tech “arbiters of truth” at Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and others are all in on the plan. They may not have all the details, but they know the basic tenets of their two responsibilities. First, they must amplify all pro-vaccine content. Then, they must suppress all anti-vaccine content. These two practices have brought the joie de vivre to authoritarians in Silicon Valley and in newsrooms across the nation....

Hallelujah" and receiving the following message, which immediately appears on their...
