Am I cast aspersions or just stating facts? Google changed because of pressure from the elites and corporate interests who used the media to badger them. It certainly isn't in google's interest to make their product worse purely to benefit others.



> Am I cast aspersions or just stating facts?

Your previous comment was attributing without evidence, actions of malice by descriptive but undefined third parties. That is the definition of "casting aspersions."

"Stating facts" would start with something like, "See this evidence that Google's policies were changed by <corporate entity> or <person or persons>."

Since you are doing the former, and not the latter, I conclude that the answer to your question is that yes, you are casting aspersions.


I'd assume you'd already know that media and elite pressure is why google changed since most people here work in the tech industry. Are you new to HN or do you work in a non-tech industry?

This reporter claims that she got youtube to change it's search list.

Should we believe her or is she lying?

"Google follows Facebook's lead and removes 39 YouTube channels linked to Iran"

These channels had been up for many years. Why do you think all of a sudden google decided to remove them?

Certainly it wasn't corporate, media or elite's pressure. So then who? Aliens? When chinese or russian social media companies remove and change their policies, why do you think that is? Aliens as well?

After 10 years of spectacular success of youtube being "you"tube, why did it suddenly become "corporate"tube? Why did they change their recommends, trending, etc? Must be aliens. It can't possibly be the elites and the media constantly attacking it?
