Google Doesn’t Respect You, Or Your Privacy

So I ran into two videos where the CEO of Google, Eric Schmidt, talks about the policies at Google. It is obvious after watching these that Google’s founding mantra of “Don’t Be Evil” no longer applies. Google is now bending to the will of every government dictator by censoring in China and by spying on us in North America. The facts remain, no matter what your opinion is, that google tracks, traces, stores and shares your data and as you hear their CEO say, it’s under the unconstitutional patriot act.

So keep in mind that while you or your kids are online searching around for whatever you find interesting, it could lead to an investigation that removes your rights as a human being… Under the loving Patriot Act. Up here in Canada, you’re free of the Patriot Act until you want to cross that border, but don’t be fooled for a second to think that the RCMP or CSIS will be blindly ignoring you or the Americans spy groups.

You Shouldn’t Be Doing it in the First Place

YouTube Reduces View Counts, then Deletes User, Then Reinstates User

When I first watched these videos the views were in the hundreds of thousands. I heard that the view counts were altered so I went to look, and the view counts were then in the hundreds. I find it amusing that YouTube would deflate the view counts to mere hundreds and expect people to believe that.

Months later YouTube completely removed the Alex Jones channel and performed a major site sweep of any and all content relating to Mr. Jones, citing copyright infringements and in some cases with no explanation at all. Mr. Jones responded to the false accusations by asking his massive syndicated radio show audience to contact YouTube and protest. YouTube heard the message loud and clear and has reinstated Mr. Jones’ channel… At least for now.

Well, these videos are of the Alex Jones radio show. Judge for yourself. This is the first of 4 parts, which you might be able to get if YouTube allows you:

Canadian ISPs Plan Net Censorship

A net-neutrality activist group has uncovered plans for the demise of the free Internet by 2010 in Canada. By 2012, the group says, the trend will be global.

Bell Canada and TELUS, Canada’s two largest Internet service providers (ISPs), will begin charging per-site fees on most Internet sites, reports anonymous sources within TELUS.

It’s beyond censorship, it is killing the biggest ecosystem of free expression and freedom of speech that has ever existed,” I Power spokesperson Reese Leysen said. I Power was the first group to report on the possible changes.

Bell Canada has not returned calls or emails. Read the rest of this entry »
