DuckDuckGo will demote Russian propaganda in search results

As with all justifications for censorship, the big question is, “Who and how do you decide if something is considered ‘Russian Disinformation?'” Does an unverified statement from the Pentagon saying so qualify? What about a Soros or Gates-funded ‘Fact checker?’ What if an average citizen states an opinion that is too similar to something put out by Russian media? What if you point out facts which are indisputably true but make the Ukrainian government look bad? What if a website (such as this one) simply pushes skepticism and non-involvement?

Despite the fact DuckDuckGo has only a tiny fraction of the world search market, it still brings more traffic to this website than Google. If it really goes through with new plans to demote search results based on politics, it in effect is destroying it’s whole business model. It becomes nothing more than a suckier version of Google. I hope other Big Tech alternatives learn from DuckDuckGo’s colossal mistake.

Why People Should Never Ever Use DuckDuckGo – TechRights.org

Whenever I read a story of a Big Tech competitor exhibiting the same kind of anti-freedom behavior, I always wonder if the story is fake stuff put out by the Big Tech companies themselves. Still, DuckDuckGo has been dropping in my trust department for a while. For example, for years I’ve used DuckDuckGo to show how Google fixed Top Results and auto-suggest, as shown in the example below:

Now, that example has been “fixed” by DuckDuckGo. I really don’t like the Right flocking to conservative sites while the Left flocks to liberal sites. It leads to polarization, and I believe we all need to hear voices across the political spectrum. However, when one side censors and the other doesn’t, what choice do we have? For example, the majority of Parler and MeWe users are conservative, but at least they don’t censor liberal voices who do come on. We can’t say the same of conservatives on Twitter and Facebook. As for search engines, here are 22 alternatives to Google. I checked and several, such as Bing, have been fixed by the Thought Police. At least Yahoo hasn’t “fixed” their algorithm — yet.

Random Thought of the Day

Conservatives and libertarians have all witnessed the insane censorship by Big Tech companies such as Facebook, Twitter, and Google. There’s been plenty of discussion of switching to alternatives such as the search site DuckDuckGo.com or the social media sites MeWe, Parler, etc. However, until they reach a critical mass of support, Big Tech will maintain their control. So start now by changing your search engine to DuckDuckGo.com. It’s often a setting on your phone or browser, and you can download the DuckDuckGo app for your devices. For MeWe, Parler, and other alternative social media sites, start by getting as many friends as possible on the site, then ask everyone to post at least once per week. Most people who have accounts stay on Facebook because that’s where their friends and family are. However, if you get enough people regularly posting on the alt sites, eventually it will become a regular part of their daily online lives, in which case they terminate their accounts with the Big Tech fascists.
