Broadband internet is essential, not a luxury. Thank you @GovHolcomb for prioritizing #Indiana students and schools in your $250M investment so they have equitable access to participate in a meaningful digital learning experience. @ExcelinEd https://t.co/iLlqVzOqXf— Jeb Bush (@JebBush) April 23, 2021

DuckDuckGo Search isn't giving Image Search Option. I have tried to find out how to contact them, but the only links I can find are on social sites (which I don't use), and Reddit, which I won't sign up for. I have been having this issue since I bought this laptop (back in January); Also, using Brave for the browser.

Without the ability to place ads or fund-raise, a presidential run is a non-starter. But of course the Corporate Services Group called "the GOP" is all in favor of an unaccountable leftwing monopoly deciding on who is allowed to run for president. Isn't it great that monopolistic transnational corporations have "Supreme Courts" that dictate to countries who they're allowed to vote into office? For Bitch McConnell and the rest of the Get-Along Gang: This is exactly the world they've always {dreamed of}. Maxine Waters and LeBron James have received no penalty from FaceBook or any other social media monopoly. Note...

Neighborhood social media app Nextdoor has recently announced a new “anti-racist” notification that warns users to reconsider sending messages with the phrases “All Lives Matter” and “Blue Lives Matter.” A video posted to the Nextdoor YouTube channel on Sunday depicts the notification feature in action. Someone responds to a message supporting Black Lives Matter by saying “Why just black lives? I believe all lives matter.” The full-screen “anti-racist” notification then pops up and says: “Hold on… The phrase ‘all lives matter’ can be hurtful to people of color. Consider editing before you publish.” Below is a bright-colored button that prompts...

I mailed an old friend some usb drives with audio and pdf and word doc files. She is even more of a techtard than I am and cannot plug usbs into the only devices she has, which are an Iphone and Ipad. I am trying to assist her long distance to access the info I sent her and have searched to no avail as I do not even know the model numbers of her devices, or whatever they're called. If knowing the model numbers would help I can get them from her. So..does anyone know if there is some device...

Over the course of five years Gab has been attacked and smeared by many different Jewish groups including the ADL for simply defending free speech online. Now today the ADL is trying to cancel Tucker Carlson for daring to speak the truth about the reality of demographic replacement that is absolutely and unequivocally going on in The West. These are not “hateful” statements, they objective facts that can no longer be ignored. The ADL wants the government to throw me in jail and shut down Gab for allowing free speech to exist online. Texas Governor Greg Abbott sat in front...

The Aspen Institute Commission on Information (AICI) has been tasked with launching an effort to eliminate "misinformation" and "disinformation" from the internet, and none other than billionaire eugenicists Bill Gates and George Soros are funding the operation. According to reports, numerous key personalities from media, business and government are also on board with the project, which aims to stop all questioning of Wuhan coronavirus (Covid-19) "vaccines," fraudulent elections, and other potential show-stoppers to the globalist agenda. Katie Couric, a fake news icon, is a co-chair of AICI, as is Rashad Robinson, the CEO of the far-left activist group Color of...

Indiana Attorney General has begun investigations into five Big Tech corporations for censorship of conservative content involving Joe Biden’s nominee, Vanita Gupta. The probe includes companies Amazon, Apple, Facebook, Google, and Twitter over whether they have “harmed Indiana consumers through business practices that are abusive, deceptive and/or unfair.” Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita said, “In a free society, few assets are more important to consumers than access to information and the opportunity to express political viewpoints in meaningful forums.” Adding, “It is potentially harmful and unfair for these companies to manipulate content in ways they do not publicly discuss or...

Let's say I wanted to build a small web site to try and make a small stab against wokeness. In the past, I'd have probably registered a domain with Godaddy, and then either rented some hosting space or thrown up my own server. In a rural area and it's hard enough to get a reliable DSL - and I need to stay on the good side of my ISP since I use it for work. So short of renting some commercial space in town and trying to get a business internet connection, it looks like I'd have to use a...

I need some help. I search the web a lot to find images or photos, primarily to use on the FReepathon. Today, when I tried for the first time, I didn't get the normal info that enables me to copy, the address I guess you would call it, of the photo I want to use in a post.More info in comment below.

Instagram has removed conservative political commentator Kaitlin Bennett’s iconic graduation photo from three years ago for “violence and incitement.” Meanwhile, the platform has allowed an endless stream of threats against the right-wing firebrand to continue for years. Apparently, Instagram believes that photos of you peacefully exercising your Second Amendment right are a crime. In their notification to Bennett, they said “we don’t allow content that may lead to a genuine risk to physical harm or direct threat to public safety.” TRENDING: HUGE BREAKING NEWS: Arizona Senate Republicans Courageously Announce Team Who Will Perform Maricopa County Election Audit and It's Good...

In testimony before a congressional committee, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey admitted that his company made a mistake when it tried to suppress news accounts of illicit activity documented in Hunter Biden's abandoned laptop computer. However, he declined to name the person responsible for this "mistake." "Look, the New York Post story and tweet were based on evidence obtained without Hunter Biden's knowledge or permission," Dorsey said. "We felt it was an unfair invasion of his privacy for someone else to disclose contents that, in hindsight, he would rather have not seen in the media because of the damage it would...

In Sir Walter Scott’s epic, but mostly forgotten, poem, “Marmion: A Tale of Flodden Field,” Scott penned his famous couplet: “Oh what a tangled web we weave / When first we practice to deceive.” Those lines resonate today when Americans are submerged in an ideological fog of artificial truth thanks to the American media. In step with them are digital social media platforms. In addition, our universities, political class, and elites are foisting information that is laden with lies and half-truths to promote their social and political agenda -- and they are doing it with some considerable success. These outlets’...

Imagine having a simple tool for creating and updating your own private starter page (homepage) of favorite links on the web. If you're looking for something like that, I've built one you can download and use for free. Here's the idea behind it: Build and maintain the homepage using a simple text editor (such as Notepad++) that doesn't require you to learn HTML — just insert a few HTML tags. Deliver a private HTML page that launches from your laptop so you can quickly access your links without Big Tech's help. Enable quick search engine switching to and from...

Mark Zuckerberg has control and power few have ever experienced in the history of humanity, and while many have called for the breakup of his social media empire, we’ve rarely ever heard how those who actually guide Facebook’s fleet feel about it. As a new Project Veritas video shows, those that think the empire should fracture include those at the top, who most recognize just how dangerous the monster they control is.As pointed out by the new Project Veritas video, Facebook’s Global Planning Lead, Benny Thomas, doesn’t care that he’d make less money as a result, but made it clear...

Every month 30 million people use Gab’s services to get access to the free flow of information online. Gab is the home of free speech in a world where Big Tech oligarchs have censored, deplatformed, and demonized tens of millions of good, honest, and decent people with whom they disagree politically. Tonight Texas Governor Greg Abbott, a “Republican,” issued a despicable and false statement smearing Gab as an “anti-semitic platform that quote “has no place in Texas.” This is the same Gov. Abbott who just five days ago said he was “taking a stand against Big Tech censorship.” Gov. Abbott’s...

Many Americans on the Right and Left worry about the power of Silicon Valley’s tech titans. It seems these very large companies have become a power unto themselves and answer virtually to no one. They believe it is their right to censor thoughts and ideas, and restrict the flow of information according to whatever standards they desire. They also make astronomical profits, which gives them the freedom to buy almost whatever they want—be it to stomp on any upstart competitor that looks like a threat, or to curry favor with politicians, media, and thought leaders of all stripes. But this...

High-profile entrepreneurs like Elon Musk, venture capitalists like Peter Thiel and Keith Rabois, and big companies like Oracle and HP Enterprise are all leaving California. During COVID-19, Zoom-enabled tech workers have discovered the benefits of remote work from cheaper, less congested communities elsewhere. Is this the end of Silicon Valley as we know it? Perhaps. But other challenges to Silicon Valley’s preeminence are more fundamental than the tech diaspora.Understanding four trends that may shape the future of Silicon Valley is also a road map to some of the biggest technology-enabled opportunities of the next decades:Consumer internet entrepreneurs lack many of...
