Down But Not Out

The Era of Corporate Media Dominance Is Over [More]

It’s an attractive thought but the Deep State relying on it and its search engines burying alternative sources won’t give up so easily. And 50% of the population, by definition, is still 50% dumber than the other half, with the 30% above that still nothing to write home about.

Now look for the era of GIGO AI “fact checkers.”

They Are Scrubbing the Internet Right Now [More]

That reminds me: I’m due for my annual donation.

I’ve told you why before, lots of times.

‘Wrong Thinking is Punishable’

“We will hold Social Media Platforms accountable for the hate infiltrating their platforms – because they have a responsibility to help fight against this threat to our Democracy.

Denial of a Lot More Than Service

Internet Archive hacked, data breach impacts 31 million users [More]

I just found that out when I tried to access the page U of K took down about the Bloody Professor, and then checked IA’s X feed.

I’m a Wayback Machine fan and supporter. If not for them, this would be lost. And this.

Sorry, you’ll need to wait for the site to be back up before those last links will work, but copy and paste them and you’ll know what they’re about.

The evil bastards behind this are the enemy.
