Google manipulation leak:
It's ironic that Google wants all the juicy details of OUR lives, but when info leaks on their own strategies, it's scrubbed from the internet.
Conservative journalist James O Keefe is leaking a video (against the will) of Dakota Leazer, a Google-ad sales employee, discussing how the company is purposefully promoting Kamala Harris, by misleading end-users into thinking her ads are from PBS or other "more neutral" third parties. But then when the user actually clicks the ad, it gets redirected to ads or propaganda directly controlled by Kamala Harris.
The Google employee appears to be unaware he's being filmed, and in my opinion it looks like he's on a fake/malicious dinner date, with the camera in the woman's purse. It appears this female journalist got him to spill out quite a bit. Now his entire social media presence has been wiped.
Decide for yourself:

it depends on what country you're in, with how the phone interacts with the local towers. but it should work
The world is ass-backwards
They run Linux on the server
But Windows on their end-client
You're supposed to be able to verify and trust your local computer, while the cloud is hostile and unknown. What does it matter if the cloud is open source, if the other guy is running it?
sounds great, load it up with onion relays and less cloudflare clearweb ones
=) good one bro
Alright thanks for your insight.
What are your thoughts on proof of work? (sorry if you already answered this), but especially the more people post
You know I have 0 followers on Lens.
Why? With Lens, I tried posting for weeks, but they hide my comments in the "show more" spam sections. So I gave up.
Under the system you're proposing you'd be crushing new user's ability to reach anyone, and creating an echo chamber where the largest accounts are the most seen.
I'm suggesting the OP can label it spam, and anyone can clearly toggle that off to see the criticism. Which would then make it even more clear that the original poster is trying to hide it.
If you just want to share websites you like on a certain topic, you can get a VPS for $10 with 100G and run yacy in 1 command. If you run it locally on your computer, that works too, but you'd have to be online to share it. It's an easy setup, with 1 command of pre-req, and 1 to run it.
Horrible dude, stop building walls up. You're literally saying a new user is treated like a leper that needs approval to be seen.
Here's how you deal with spam:

What you think now?
MetaGer quits!
Announcement: New Search Engine!
Google is a US military contractor, and so searching foreign policy is a conflict of interest.
Microsoft (and therefore Duckduckbing) is also heavily involved with the Pentagon, while Bill Gates pushes for digital IDs.
As the world moves to towards censorship and dystopia,
As AI dribble fills search results,
As MetaGer throws in the towel,
Simplified Privacy steps up. I'm grinding.
We've dusted off YaCy, a decade old, neglected, open source, search engine network, that relies upon DHT torrent sharing of results, in a permissionless decentralized network. I'm now running 4 global instances of this, with over 7 million pages indexed. Liberty flows through my veins, with a key focus on oppressed political news, technology, and finance:
Moldova:
https://search.simplifiedprivacy.is
Amsterdam:
https://search.simplifiedprivacy.com
Ohio, USA:
(Whole DHT network, for now)
https://ohio.simplifiedprivacy.is
Romania:
(Whole DHT network)
We let these Big Tech search engines manipulate public opinion and act as a gatekeeper to all human knowledge. Well it's time to bust down those gates. In this easy to comprehend article, I'll break down how this network works, and how it can benefit you, by exposing you to smaller oppressed bloggers with insightful and specialized expertise, while filtering out AI garbage and authoritarian propaganda:
Yes of course to XMR and no consult. Reach out whenever you're ready. Thank you
Yes, DM us with your country. We can do most.
Yeah even at that price I wonder how nostr:npub14slk4lshtylkrqg9z0dvng09gn58h88frvnax7uga3v0h25szj4qzjt5d6 is turning a profit if selling for the same price

The price Google charges retail is different than secondary market commercial wholesale for bulk. We offer both new and like-new, and for most of the models at a lower price than Google's official store for 1 individual purchase. However, we can not offer this for all models and sizes. For example, we charge more for higher storage on newer models.
Like-new means the warranty from google has some or all of the time expired, depending on the model. But the device has no damage or defect.
For example, we offer the Pixel 9 brand new for lower cost than Google. And we have the Pixel 6a extremely cheap for like-new, but without a warranty. The 6a is perfectly fine for most people, and it has 2-3 years of support from GrapheneOS, but if you want the newest model we can do it as well.

The Myth of Airplane Mode
You're being lied to. Airplane mode does NOT hide your location. Google and Apple continue to collect it, by seeing what WiFi endpoints are near you, and then figuring out where you are through a process known as "WiFi Triangulation". [1]
Further, phones have two "brains", and the part that connects to the cell towers does NOT have to obey Airplane mode. This is called the "baseband modem", and airplane mode is an API request from the main motherboard to this modem, ASKING if it would PLEASE consider killing service.
And even worse, the baseband doesn't even need a SIM card. You can call 911 emergency without service, without wifi, just standing outside. Calyx Institute devs LIE about this on Matrix, but dial it and hear your local operator tell you the truth.
In fact, you don't even need to be the government to abuse this. Ralf-Philipp Weinmann of the University of Luxembourg demonstrated with just around $1500 in equipment, ANY RANDOM civilian hacker, who doesn't even work for the telecom, can FAKE being the cellphone tower near you. Source:

This is all why it's so critical to use GrapheneOS which helps against these types of attacks, and to buy your phone anonymously in cryptocurrency, because if you don't, it's essentially like a dog collar. At their will, they can see where you are, who you're standing near (if they have a phone too), and even turn the mics on to record.
My abusive competitors in the degoogled phone industry all charge way above Google's official store, and Google's search gives them traffic to make it harder to switch. For example on the model 8:
AbovePhone.com
Pixel 8: $999
DigitalPrivacy.shop
Pixel 8: $729
Google Official Store
Pixel 8: $599
While as I sell them BELOW the official store:
Simplified Privacy
Pixel 8: $499
PLUS you get a consult on its use, Why? Because I am on a mission. I need to get these phones, and the privacy that goes with it, in the hands of as many people as possible. And if Google search wants to oppress and censor our website, so be it. You and you alone deserve your data:
