I have cognitive dissonance, I hate tech giants and their botnet spying etc. but for some strange reason I cannot bring myself to hate Google. On the one hand I hate what they're doing but on the other, part of me somehow wants to trust them, and I don't know why, because I don't trust any other corporation. Is it that they managed to brainwash me in some way, and I don't understand how they do it. I have a Pixel phone which I love, I like using Gmail, Google search (obviously), Google Docs, etc. etc.
How can I deprogram myself?
Or maybe, just maybe, G really isn't as bad as the others? After all, even the guy who created Jow Forums went to work for them.
Exactly the same as me bro. But you won't be able to stop me from using Google search, maps or drive. Fuck no. Too useful bruhs.

Today OP discovers “wishful thinking”.
More news after the adverts.

You're brainwashed. Even if they don't send your data to three letter agencies, they definitely use it to target ads and sell more stuff. They're a marketing/ad company more than anyone else. Their search engine is pretty good though, I find myself using it a lot :^(
Can you TL;DR that for an actual autistic ADHD cunt?

>How can I deprogram myself? Go try some politically incorrect searches on Google, then do the exact same searches on Bing, and tell me you don't see a huge difference in the kinds of results. Google was caught burying pro-Trump pages and raising pro-Hillary pages in results during the last presidential election season - anyone using it could see for themselves - and yet they refused to admit it, and haven't changed anything since then. They are using their near-monopoly in search and video to curate a particular worldview to their users for ideological reasons, which would be fine if they told their users they were doing this, except they don't and then lie about it when people start poking. Googlers are bad people because they should all be smart enough to notice ethics violations, but most of them continue working there, being the cogs in the censorship and propaganda machine.

I love Google. I get into all of their beta programs and use their services religiously now. This is coming from a neoluddite gentooman just last year who would only install the freeist of free software. Mk ultra works lads.
Alexander Roberts
>censor right wing opinions >promote progressist and leftist garbage >shares your data with anyone who can afford it >owned by jews
I don't know how could anyone not hate Google.
Joseph Martin
>to curate a particular worldview to their users for ideological reasons Yes but their worldview is not that bad. They believe in creating an egalitarian technocratic global utopia guided by AI.
Noah Sullivan
google is fine so long as you realise that you are the product, but don't get mad when google is the only option left anymore because they've pushed competitors out of the markets with loss leading products (see youtube, and the complete lack of viable competing video hosting services)
>and yet they refused to admit it, and haven't changed anything since then. they've been doing this for over a decade and all people had to say back then was 'put your tinfoil hat away', what makes you think it's going to change any time soon? normies will be the death of us all
Carter Hernandez
Actually I can't see any downsides to censor Nazis like you. I'm no SJW but I don't see a problem with censoring hate speech.
Jaxon Russell
WikiLeaks is compromised, they're no longer publishing factual reporting.
Isaiah Harris
I'm a capitalist so I believe private companies have the right to do literally whatever they want. If Google wanted to make their site a Jewish only club and forced everyone to prove they are Jewish, or if you are none Jewish you have to get your penis cut and under oath confirm the Holocaust happened and also get a vesectomy to end the white race good on them. Retarded socialists like you believe in market controls to stop your feelings from being hurt.
Jace Clark
Did you guys try the new Google News? It's really good, their AI really chooses only news I care about. It's almost scary how good it is. One thing that surprises me is how many anti-Google news I am seeing? are they fucking with my head?
Adrian Carter
>I'm a capitalist so I believe private companies have the right to do literally whatever they want. What about externalities?
Josiah Brooks
I saw that lmao. Like news about Google being sued or fined or Google abusing your data? Why would they show me that, is it reverse psychology to make me think they are unbiased?
Luke Powell
That page is from 2014.
Hunter Gonzalez
>is it reverse psychology to make me think they are unbiased I think so... or news about how OnePlus6 is better than Pixel etc. It can't be a coincidence... there are just too many anti-Google news. I imagine it's a strategy. Google is doing next level psychology shit.
Oliver Diaz
Seriously, all of my "what??".
Google has so much information about you: GoogleDocs, GoogleMaps, GMail, Search Requests..
Guess why Alphabet is so rich? Guess why Google was one of the first companies that were forced into giving their data to the TLAs?
>or news about how OnePlus6 is better than Pixel etc. It has a headphone jack, newer SOC, more RAM, bigger battery(less than xl though) and display. It's cheaper. Camera's processing might not be as good, but it finally got OIS. It's retarded to compare phones from different generations though.
Kevin Martin
And who is to decide what is hate speech? The left seems quite hateful to me, why promote their brand of hate?
Jackson Thomas
>part of me somehow wants to trust them, Kill that part or yourself. You can't trust anyone.
>egalitarian bad >global bad >utopia to who ? -> dystopia >guided by Ai literally the worst thing that could happen
Luis Cox
>WikiLeaks is compromised, they're no longer publishing factual reporting. Since when? Which report was false? How was it proven to be false? You have nothing. Either way, Google is still a participant in the NSA's PRISM project and it hasn't changed. That's everything you need to know.
Brayden Kelly
You guys are fucking hypocrites. Jewgle is the worst offender in every single way. Fuck off and die if you're shills, and change your ways if you're not
Adam Price
>Which report was false? The ones that were mean to Chillary.
Robert Adams
Only reason I still use Google is because of Android and YouTube.
So only socialists are allowed to dislike things? If you read his posts, he never said google should he stopped from doing anything, but that the CONSUMER should switch to something else. How is using the best service available over an ebil shady botnet not the ideal mode of capitalism?
Benjamin Gutierrez
So many shills in here. Google is shit. I've kept off going off my Windows phone because I don't want Google spying on me. Microsoft is more trustworthy to me because they can't sell data willy nilly because they answer to their enterprise partners. Google sells your shit to the highest bidder. Fuck Google and all the shills and tools in here
Tyler Peterson
I wish there was a service like google search that wasn't shit. I enjoy being able to see my history of previous searches on any device but fuck google. I wish I had a service like google drive that wasn't shit, I want the practicality of being able to share files online almost instantly and free on the cloud, and even edit them online with google docs. I wish there was a better gmail, nvm I found one, I still use it but I use another e-mail provider.
Landon Rodriguez
>Their search engine is pretty good though, I find myself using it a lot :^( Just use Searx. Problem solved.
