Alternatives To State-run Social Media: >>>/prepare/20 | https:// archive.fo/u7LTM https:// web.archive.org/web/20180831064849/https:// 8ch.net/prepare/res/20.html
Google has become so unethical that even some of its own employees want nothing to do with it anymore. In the latest example of the company driving away valued workers, senior research scientist Jack Poulson has quit his job in protest of the company’s plans to launch a censored version of the Google search engine in China.
Last month, news emerged that Google was secretly working on a Chinese search app code-named Dragonfly for devices running Android. It removes any content that the Chinese government doesn’t want its people to see, such as that pertaining to free speech, human rights, democracy, and political dissidents. It will also see queries that have been deemed “sensitive” blacklisted entirely, meaning that no results whatsoever will turn up if people type in certain terms or phrases.
As part of the company’s research and machine intelligence department, Poulson was tasked with improving their search systems’ accuracy. He raised his concerns with his managers but ultimately decided that he couldn’t work for them any more in good conscience. He resigned at the end of last month, and he told The Intercept that at least four others have done the same.
He said that the plan was a violation of Google’s principles stating they will not design technologies “whose purpose contravenes widely accepted principles of international law and human rights.”
Not only was the censorship itself concerning, but he also had reservations about the fact that customer data would be hosted on the Chinese mainland, where the country’s security agencies would have access to it. Given what we know about what the Chinese government does to journalists and political activists it wants to silence, he’s right to be concerned about it.
Poulson told his bosses in his resignation letter: “I view our intent to capitulate to censorship and surveillance demands in exchange for access to the Chinese market as a forfeiture of our values and governmental negotiating position across the globe. There is an all-too-real possibility that other nations will attempt to leverage our actions in China in order to demand our compliance with their security demands.”
Poulson is hardly alone in his concerns. When the news of Dragonfly made its way throughout Google, there was a lot of protest within the company, with more than 1,400 employees signing a letter demanding the appointment of an ombudsman to assess the censorship plan’s “urgent moral and ethical issues.” They say they have a right to know what they’re working on. In other words, if Google is going to be carrying out unethical acts, they want no part of it.
Some of those who led the letter effort were also behind protests of the firm’s work with the American military to build AI systems that could identify objects like vehicles in drone footage. Those protests ultimately resulted in Google letting its military contract expire.
Google’s response to the Dragonfly letter? They cut off employees’ access to documents about the Chinese search engine and tightened rules so that employees working remotely can no longer livestream meetings on personal computers after a leak last month.
Earlier this month, the company’s CEO, Sundar Pichai, refused to show up for a Senate Intelligence Committee hearing during which he would have faced questions about the Chinese censorship. In addition, Google has ignored countless journalists’ questions about the plan.
Of course, this doesn’t come as much of a surprise from a company that has been a bit China-like itself, exerting its power to censor search results and YouTube videos when the topic at hand doesn’t serve its political agenda. As this behavior continues and employees grow increasingly wary of where the line will be drawn, there could well end up being a mass exodus.
Google is bad. Their products are shitty. It's barebones shit that just barely works. I've never used worse software in my life, except maybe Windows ME.
Google, Microsoft, Facebook, they're all shitty losers that are slow, unwieldy, and designed for stupid people.
Smart people don't use these companies. They're the McDonalds of computers.
I prefer to pay real money for real software. Not get this freeware virus junk. They'll steal your information and give it to evil governments.
No more Google for me. I'm off to talk to REAL people and share information the classic way. Lovers, friends, and my community.
Fuck Google. Fuck censorship.
Caleb Campbell
If free speech isn't absolute free speech, then it's not free.
I want free speech protected, with enforcement against silences. Yes, that means FREEDOM FROM CONSEQUENCES OF SPEECH.
You KNOW what I mean, Shrek.
I'm not talking about a girl slapping you if you tell her she has hot tits.
I'm talking about a girl getting you fired from your job and impoverishing and basically killing you or starving you if you tell her she has hot tits.
You know what I mean, right? Or are you so stupid you can't even grasp the value of freedom?
Blake Jackson
Glad to know some people still have their soul. People that lost their soul became politicians.
Dominic Foster
Get out on the street, breath in and scream the word JEW as loud as you can, for as long as it takes for you to see the solution to the problem. Spread the word and stop supporting capitalism.
Gabriel Brown
Well at least the brain drain will ensure that Google will fail.
Bentley Watson
Their owners are sitting on hundreds of billions of dollars. The only ones loosing here were, are and will be the peasants.
Easton Sanchez
Supporting Google does not mean supporting capitalism. In capitalism there are alternatives choices: archive.fo/XA02u
Joseph Stewart
Not if the peasants simply refuse their services and turn to the alternatives, and support the alternatives too (as in donations).
Aaron Cooper
Fuck off. No one is falling for that shit outside of plebbit and /leftycuck/
Joshua Reyes
anti-neptune-rant-bump-2
Parker Cook
Those Google billions came from all of us. Capitalism will always destroy the past, exploit the present and corrupt the future. Your alternatives will fail to the same greed, because the source of the corruption is still there.
Same thing. With the jew intact, greed will always destroy everything. Nobody turns down money, everyone has a price.
Hudson Jackson
You can't make technology work just by throwing money at it. You need people that have the know-how to get it done. Obviously the bigwigs will be fine financially speaking. They'll get their golden parachutes and everyone else will get the shaft, but I don't give a shit about that part. They can have their money. It's the tyranny of google's tech monopoly that the issue here.
Cameron Bailey
As long as there is a free market there will be those are are corrupted, and those who are not. Just stick to those who are not, and if they become corrupted, then find the newest alternatives. Its a constant battle but at least we'll always have that consumer choice to do so.
Jayden Reyes
You forget history. All those companies started with intelligent minds, full of talent and bravado to make it in this world. To change the world to a better place. And they all fell for the scheming Jew whispering greed in their ears. You cannot win in capitalism without others loosing, and the more you win the more destruction the loses create.
Noah Butler
People are just getting tired of it already. I'll give you an example. Youtube started censoring conservatives years ago. Just a few months ago real.video opened up and so far tens of thousands of channels from Youtube joined ship, with other people creating new channels, ripping old videos from Youtube and posting them over to real.video. The war is on. Bitchute is doing the same too. I'm also sharing videos via P2P as well. They fucked over too many people, and now people are finding alternatives. Google will still be around… only to find themselves with less of a user base thats all.
Michael Brown
A free market is something the "winners" let you have as a side dish. BUT meanwhile they're actively using their money and power to corrupt and destroy those free markets out of existence. And with capitalism reaching it's absolute revenue limits, and the ones holding the wealth running out of stuff to spend it on, the future of choices will be annihilated faster than you can breath.
Hudson Ward
You're falling for the same trap yet again. Google already stole all that money from their costumers, while getting so powerful that they build the worlds biggest censorship tool. Your alternatives will sell out the second their viewership reaches a certain threshold. Meanwhile laws are getting corrupted (copyright) to make it harder and more expensive to make alternatives. It's an endless cycle of destruction that robs us all of our freedom.
David Sullivan
As long as there is a free market there will always be competition. Your fear is monopolization, and there are laws against it. The real concern is will government enforce those laws and break up the monopolies? In this day and age that is up for debate (because government is corrupted).
Jonathan Lopez
This is why we need to use and support the alternatives. Or you could chose nothing at all, but thats not going to get you anywhere because society will move on without you.
Noah Mitchell
So when do you think will Amazon be split open? Wake up and either prepare to fight the Jews or at least advocate a roof over capitalism to stop greed from totally destroying us all. You're clamoring to a concept of laws that are getting undermined and corrupted each and every day. The freedom we all have is getting smaller and smaller. How long will you wait?
Justin Foster
Again, don't support Amazon then. Shop at the retail stores or perhaps go to garage sales, flee markets and dollar stores like I do.
Christian King
What do you propose as an alternative? Communism has always done the exact same thing, in fact it's literally engaging in it right now throughout academia. So that's not immune to the same problems.
What new alternative do you propose we use to allocate resources?
Juan Long
Correct, if the State were to control everything it would be even worse. They'll only give you their options and thats it. I hate state-run monopolies.
Grayson Nelson
Kid, mankind is waging wars over this question for centuries, and the bombs will soon fall over it again. Only thing I can do is tell you the truth that you don't want to hear. Also capitalism is hear to stay if you like it or not…but it needs a roof or we all die.
James Wilson
here to stay
Ryan Reyes
This is your brain on Zig Forums folks
Jordan Cooper
Whats the "roof" that capitalism needs exactly? Perhaps if we just outlaw political lobbying that might actually correct a lot of things?
Zachary Morales
The machine is killing you as long as the Jew is operating it. We can talk about salvaging a corrupted system after the war, but as long as it's operating it's a danger to us all.
Matthew Bailey
>Get rid of the machine and magically the Jews become harmless. Maybe, it's time to try…(((socialism)))? Yeah, no
Hudson Nguyen
A lot of the central bankers are kikes, this is the head of the snake we need to cut off before things get any better.
Jack Johnson
The Jews have two weapons. They control their allies with greed and their opposition with fear. If you stop greed, their fear is useless.
One maximum sum, tied to the wealth of the country, a single individual and a corporation can hold at a time. Everything earned over gets redistributed into the system to raise the floor. With that greed cannot harm us anymore and the chasm between rich and poor will always be the same.
We are in a timezone where 10$ minimum wage faces a trillion dollar company. It cannot go on anymore.
Michael Carter
Go away Zig Forums.
Asher Wilson
Money. And where does it come from? Capitalism! They won't let you protest Jews, but they cannot stop you from going against capitalism with everything you got. You only have to let go of your own addiction to it first.
Michael Smith
Everything is a circle. Deal with it. And with redistribution I didn't mean giving it into the foolish peasant hands, but raising the floor of living itself.
Joseph Ortiz
...
Anthony Rodriguez
So you wanna keep your head buried in the history books while they burn your city down? Capitalism is corrupted now, the present is the danger we're facing.
Lucas Edwards
Are are batshit crazy if you think civilized society is going to exist without some kind of currency or unit of trade.
Nolan Foster
I type too fucking fast. I meant to say *You are batshit crazy if you think civilized society is going to exist without some kind of currency or unit of trade.
Carson Ortiz
Then where does all that money go if you "re-distribute" it?
Liam James
It works great, you just have no marketable skills to offer.
Asher Wilson
Were did I say that? You have to fight the corruption in it, and for that you have to take the whole thing down to it's knees, and then put the roof over it.
A floor, a foundation build on the question "what should we (as a country) give to all our citizens"? Food, water, shelter, sanitation, electricity, heating, medicine, schooling, transportation, web access…sounds like pretty basic stuff to you, doesn't it? But ask yourself why do so many people in this country lack access to so many of these things? With forced redistribution from the top we could cement each and every one of the basics for everyone. And the more the rich is making the better the rest is living. Greed is still there (since you cannot stop natural vices) but it's now not dangerous to the rest of us anymore.
Proof me wrong.
Joseph Brooks
Its corrupted, but its not the problem. The problem IS corruption. There are laws against that, again, the State needs to take action. So far our government sucks, they don't use anti-trust laws like they are supposed to be enforcing. Lets hope it happens soon. Meanwhile, support alternatives, become more self-sufficient, perhaps look into living off-grid in a rural area (they hate that).
Blake Anderson
Kike. Kids are dying because of you, they are driven into suicide, into killing each other…all because you're not able to moderate yourself.
Nathaniel Morris
You can't just steal wealth like that, you do realize the second our politicians actually suggest such a thing all the rich folks with money will flee the country, right? They'll head for the hills, offshore, and fast. Then how are you going to fund anything?
Jack Howard
Rabid dog…Rabies is the problem, but you still have to take down the dog first.
Stop it already. How many laws do you have to see fall, ignored and destroyed in front of your eyes to realize that the system won't help anybody? The corruption is already absolute.
Jason Allen
Even little kids can make shekels selling lemonade out in their front year. Get off your ass and learn to make bank.
Asher Hall
Why hello, commie scum. Capitalism is shit sure, but it's all that'll work until we achieve post-scarcity. How can you possibly think anything will be better with socialism? An engineer who helps better the world should have equal living conditions to some troglodyte working at McDonalds? I don't think so. If anything, healthcare should be free for now, and that's it.
They did. They do. No moral quarrels about it too.
And we close the borders right behind them. Others will follow. The Mafia fled to Cuba once as their last resort…and all their ill gotten gains couldn't help their destruction.
How do you think this country was build? With hard work.
Mason Turner
If your talking about something destroying 300,000,000+ citizens' way of life you can forget about it. You'll face the firing squads in no time here in America.
Jack Sullivan
A universal basic income for people under the poverty line would be helpful too, but it's obvious most of that money would get wasted on frivolous shit. We need get space mining going full steam and promote laws for birth permits. People who are genetically and psychologically unfit to have children shouldn't be able to.
Mason Gutierrez
OK, but the State would typically be the one to take such actions against rounding up a mob. How can we trust the State to do this when they are so damn corrupt?
Jeremiah Torres
Under Jewish capitalism? Have you looked outside? Outside your wealth bubble? Into the decaying real world?
Read my other posts. I'm neither a commie nor against capitalism, but it has to be fought back. As for your kike-ish fear of sharing (greed)…you would still make way more money as an engineer and living in a fancy house, BUT the burger flipper will always have the basics at his disposal. And the more money goes into the life of the burger flipper, the more money will you make. Also if you make a mistake at any point you won't sit on the fucking street thanks to the collective working power of the past who build a better foundation for all of us. Only a god damn kike would attack a system like that.
Aaron Nelson
You can't do that without workers (taxpayers), and industry is needed to provide income to those workers (taxpayers). Thus, you'd have to have some kind of system very similar to the one you hate (capitalism).
Matthew Wood
Every city for itself until their wealth gets to the maximum and the money goes over the borders, because that will also improve the way of life for everyone. This system will very soon sustain itself, and there can be no damaging corruption since the wealth level is capped and balanced.
Nicholas Martinez
Like I said the wealth level is capped and balanced, which means the corrupt politicians cannot damage us anymore in a severe way. There will always be corruption and crime, but with a wealth cap for individuals they have nothing to gain that could harm us.
Angel Bennett
Thats not such a bad idea, a wealth cap of $2million per individual, anything more gets re-distributed by the state to charity (such as helping pay for healthcare services). And political lobbying should be outlawed too, with death penalty for treason of any guilty politician and lobbyist.
Sebastian Ross
Yeah no, that would be WWIII in a matter of minutes. We do need the rich and they have to be rich. A more realistically number would be 100 Million, but that number has to be directly tied to the wealth level of a country, state, city. What's also important is that the maximum number never really escapes the reach of the peasants, they need a dream to move forward.
Xavier Edwards
...
Christopher Kelly
Also no…we build a better life for everyone. We don't need charity in our country.
Camden Phillips
Well I gave you a weapon to use against them. Something you can rally against without being policed like a criminal. Something that allows you to wield a flag, to unite under a flag against it. And it will destroy the kike. So what are you waiting for?
All ridiculous theatre. jewgle is censored to shit in every country, and it is and always has been evil as fuck, absolute poison, and has been one of the three main cancers of the www. "WAAAAHHHH they are censoring it in china!!!!!! WAAAAAAHHH" Don't give a shit about them spying on the entire fucking GLOBE with satellites, cars covered in cameras, everyone's email being piped through to whichever agency wants it, selling off the data to every company that will buy it. Eat shit.
Sebastian Flores
They just unveiled their newest motto and i love it!
Christ get a load of this kid. Capitalism has nothing to do with it. Its politics, always politics. We have a decent working market system but we still can't govern ourselves well. You magic voodoo commie -ism has failed repeatedly to solve this issue because its just another book burning dictatorship in disguise.
As long as politician can be bought, this shit will keep happening.
The Book Of ENoch. Taken our of the Bible 500 years ago. remember the Masons existed all the way back then, they just changed their name because good men kept exposing. The Holy Scrolls were burnt and "recovered" don't you think they would have changed some things. THe fallen angels, they aren't lizard people or aliens, that's them tricking us, the Bible says we're going to be asleep.
GEMATRIA IS THE FREEMASON LANGUAGE. TOWER 7 WAS A CONTROLLED DEMOLITION. AND ISREAL IS THE FALSE JEW WHO WILL RULE IN THE END TIME.
Yet you say it's not capitalism? If there's a paycheck it's capitalism and also stop with the communism bullshit, that's lefty propaganda.
Anthony Walker
I haven't seen any US dissidents on the internet since 9/11. Who the fuck are you kidding OP?
Easton Flores
The Book of Enoch talks about the 7 Mountains of Antartica How? They gave us phones and super technology so Quickly to distract us.
THE FIGHT IS FOR OUR SOULS. It's real and they are trying to kill all of you forever with degeneracy. They're trying to murder your soul.
Jesus will save you God is real please let God lead you please ask to be his hand and let God work through you. Please the World is ending soon. The Book of Enoch the World is out of time in seasons and I don't know if the nights are darker or if the sun is paler but Please look at the Book
THE BOOK OF ENOCH WAS REMOVED FORM THE BIBLE 500 YEARS AGO. it talks about this
The Masons and Illuminati have been around a very long time and Good Men have died just to tell us their names. and they keep changing it. please ask Jesus to be saved
James Howard
Yes lets destroy all wealth! There will always be something to trade. There will always be a way to gain leverage, its part of nature. Denial of nature is why communism will always fail.
Owen Evans
It's not about destroying it. It's about making sure that it can never be used to harm us again. Greed is just a too destructive vice to go unchecked.
Jonathan Campbell
Greed built everything around you. Without it there would only be extinction. Greed in of itself its not problem, its sociopathy.
Carson Davis
Oh greed will stay, but putting a cap on capitalism takes the edge off it. The greedy can still indulge in it, but we can and must make sure they will never again gain too much power from it.
We can't even diagnose a sociopath precisely so it's of no relevance of our present problems, BUT each and every one of us can make a sacrifice to put a roof over capitalism. And the only ones against it will be the most greedy of them all. This is also how you lure the devil out of hiding. In other words the kikes will go mental and with that humanity will once again cast their eyes on on an evil among them that needs to be stopped.
Jace Richardson
You can't control this and those who claim they can will be corrupted while the rest of the world suffers due to the draconian measures required to make this happen.
Someone who lacks empathy and will use people for their own gains without morality. Commies don't like this because it applies to them heavily.
You can't control this and those who claim they can will be corrupted while the rest of the world suffers due to the draconian measures required to make this happen.
Every commie solution requires a dictatorship to achieve it. Imagine my shock.
Juan Brooks
No. See a roof means that the ones on top will always have the same amount of money. They can legally not own more. They are still able to fuck each other over to their hearts content, but all the overshot money goes directly back into the city/state/country account, which of course has to be openly handled. It's all relatively simple since the kikes can't promise anyone more money anymore, therefore no never ending greed, and no more power hungry super villains.
I do this when I go to the bakery at Sundays…no fucks given. Anyway that's a moral judgement and has no merits in the real world.
No, just a solid law. Banks accounts would be regulated to a maximum and the banker themselves can never hold more money than the cap allows them. The only tricky part is when a city gets too wealthy and the overshot gets over the borders. But again…everyone wins with this solution…well except the kikes of course, who would have no more weapons for their backstabbing.
Luis Butler
I don't use Google at all.
