Report: Google's Chinese Search Prototype Logs Phone Numbers, Hides Unapproved Pollution Data​

https://gizmodo.com/report-googles-chinese-search-prototype-logs-phone-num-1829085277

​

Google’s widely reported search engine prototype for China, which is allegedly code-named Dragonfly, not only blacklists search terms to comply with the wishes of government censors but ties all searches to devices’ phone numbers, according to a report on Friday from the Intercept.
Google pulled out of China in 2010 amid censorship concerns and a cyberattack that compromised some human rights activists’ accounts, but it is reportedly planning a return to cash in on a massive market that has been overtaken by rivals. To do so, though, they need to comply with the whims of Chinese authorities. The Intercept wrote that internal documents show “Google compiled a censorship blacklist that included terms such as ‘human rights,’ ‘student protest,’ and ‘Nobel Prize’ in Mandarin” for use in the Dragonfly project. It also added in features that appear to have been developed for the sole purpose of making it as easy as possible for the government to swoop in on anyone searching for that kind of thing:


~~~~~~

The question is, has Google developed the same censorship program for America?
Make no mistake - Google has become a fascist corporation in bed with the communists of all nations - in China... and the Democrats here. They are for oppressing the people. Use them at your peril.

Well, China has laws. If Google wants to do business in China, it has to obey those laws.

The issue isn't really about whether Google has similar censorship program in the US, because they've had to develop this for the Chinese market, so the answer right now is simple: no.

The issue is when the US govt decides that it also wants this information and Google then has to comply. Will the US govt tell people they're doing this, or make some kind of war in which to make some kind of Patriot Act where this suddenly becomes legal under the pretext of making the US safer?

So it doesn't both you that Google would use the same "Algorithms' in the U.S to monitor and censor Americans?

Didn't I do that already?

I'm sure I said it in the previous post.

That it's more about how the US sets up its "democracy" than what Google gets up to.

Google does the same here.
