DuckDuckGo Will ‘Down-Rank' What It Decides Is ‘Disinformation'
2022-03-11
[Breitbart] Popular privacy-focused search engine DuckDuckGo, commonly considered an alternative to Google, has announced that it will be "down-ranking" sites associated with "disinformation," along with adding "information boxes" to "highlight quality information." The announcement received widespread backlash from DuckDuckGo supporters, who view the changes as adopting the censorship policies of the Masters of the Universe.

Don't suppose they up-rank social credit score sites?

#5  I switched over to the built in Brave search engine last night. I should have known that DDG had gone overto the dark side once i started seeing commercials on TV.

#3  More like China and Russia every day.

Monstrous goverent fuckups - like the ghastly Pfizer gene therapy experiment gone wrong - are hidden or memory-holed while truth-tellers are vilified and slandered.

Disgusting hoaxes - like "systemic police racism," or "Trumps a Russian agent" - are perpetrated with every tool the media has at its disposal.

And now we're told that a disaster for which, as John Mearsheimer rightly observes, the US bears principal responsibility (through our insane push to give Ukraine de facto NATO membership and to bring about the "Orange Revolution") is all the fault of the evil man in the Kremlin.

Fuck these liars.

Regime change begins at home.
