Good. I hope they win a massive settlement and drive them all out of business. Each one has been cutting off its platform to foes of jihad terror. In February, referrals from Facebook and Twitter to Jihad Watch dropped by 90% and have never recovered. Google has changed its search results so that when one […]
Google is now disapproving ads containing the keyword “jihadwatch”
I heard from two writers Saturday who told me that Google had banned their book ads because they contained the keyword “jihadwatch.” Note that both writers say that their ads had not been active for years. I’ve written a great deal lately about how the Left is using Charlottesville as its Reichstag Fire moment to […]
Video: Robert Spencer on the Left’s quest to silence and destroy all its opponents
I spoke today in Virginia, at the Young America’s Foundation Great Beginnings Seminar for college and university students. It was refreshing to speak to a group of college students without being screamed at.
Video: Robert Spencer on the social media giants’ war on the freedom of speech
On August 29, I spoke at the David Horowitz Freedom Center’s Wednesday Morning Club in Los Angeles on the social media giants’ new practice of shutting down voices that don’t follow the Leftist agenda. Here is a transcript of the event: DAVID HOROWITZ: And I wanted to say that Robert Spencer is a very special […]
Robert Spencer: Should Anti-trust Laws Be Used to Break Up the Social Media Giants?
Google, Facebook and the rest wield more power than most governments. My latest in FrontPage: The secular Left and the proponents of Islamic blasphemy laws have a new issue on which they are making common cause: the quest to destroy the freedom of speech, the cornerstone of our democracy. After Charlottesville, the Left sees its […]
Video: Robert Spencer on Google changing its search results to spike criticism of Islam
In this new video, I discuss how Google has changed its first page results for searches of terms such as “jihad,” “sharia” and “taqiyya” to display only positive explanations of Islamic concepts.
ProPublica, working with Google to “document hate,” threatens counter-jihad bloggers
More on how the Left is moving in for the kill and trying to destroy the freedom of speech completely. “ProPublica, Working with Google to ‘Document Hate,’ Threatens Conservative Bloggers,” by Paula Bolyard, PJ Media, August 19, 2017: Google revealed in a blog post that it is now using machine learning to document “hate crimes […]
Google’s “left-wing bias has alienated its own workers”
The complaining conservative employee in this story is discussing gender bias, but his points are sound in a larger sense: it is true that Google, like the other Leftist new media giants, is indefatigably opposed to viewpoints that dissent from the hard-Left line. And Google has begun manipulating its search results to conceal criticism of […]
Robert Spencer in PJ Media: Google Manipulates Search Results to Conceal Criticism of Islam and Jihad
Google fell for an organized disinformation campaign. My latest at PJ Media: The jihad against the freedom of speech is advancing rapidly, and most people don’t even know it’s happening. Turkey’s state-run news outlet Anadolu Agency reports: Google’s first page results for searches of terms such as “jihad”, “shariah” and “taqiyya” now return mostly reputable […]
Google’s new “hate speech” algorithm is anti-Semitic and pro-jihad
As I revealed here several days ago, Google has bowed to Muslim pressure and changed its search results to conceal criticism of Islam and jihad. Search results that Muslim leaders (whose motives Google apparently never questions or investigates) have made sure that sites such as Jihad Watch are buried in search results, with numerous site […]
