For anyone that doesn't know who Dr. Spencer is -- for about 40 years, he and Dr. Christy have been in charge of the UAH Satellite Data processing for Global Mean Earth temperature. It's ALWAYS been a joint venture with NOAA and NASA. They are one of two centers that process the data into temperatures by regions on the earth. (the other is RSS) Even tho the 2 sites use diff algorithms, there's exceptional agreement in the results. And these results are used WORLDWIDE by the GW science community.
Dr Roy has his OWN site where he publicly makes available the LATEST chart every month and weighs in on other things meteorological and Global Warming.
Well Dr. Roy JUST GOT GOOGLED. That's right. Those Liberal Arts Woking Dead fact checkers demonitized his blog. Not that STOPS the blog in any way. The amount he collected probably just paid the yearly hosting dues for a fairly simple site.
SURE -- a degree in Lativian History qualifies you to be a "misinformation sleuth" when it comes to funny looking graphs that dont look like every other graph they've seen on the web so KILL IT !!!
If you asked them to READ the graph and figure out how much GW in their lifetime they'd probably GOOGLE YOU.
Here's what Dr Spencer announced recently.
“Unreliable and harmful claims”: This website has been demonetized by Google
January 7th, 2022
DrRoySpencer.com has been demonetized by Google for “unreliable and harmful claims”. This means I can no longer generate revenue to support the website using the Google Adsense program.
From a monetary standpoint, it’s not a big deal because what I make off of Google ads is in the noise level of my family’s monthly budget. It barely made more than I pay in hosting fees and an (increasingly expensive) comment spam screener.
I’ve been getting Google warnings for a couple months now about “policy violations”, but nowhere was it listed what pages were in violation, and what those violations were. There are Adsense rules about ad placement on the page (e.g. a drop-down menu cannot overlay an ad), so I was assuming it was something like that, but I had no idea where to start looking with hundreds of web pages to sift through. It wasn’t until the ads were demonetized that Google offered links to the pages in question and what the reason was.
Of course, I should have figured out it was related to Google’s new policy about misleading content; a few months ago Google announced they would be demonetizing climate skeptic websites. I was kind of hoping my content was mainstream enough to avoid being banned since:
I believe the climate system has warmed
I believe most of this warming is probably due to greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuel burning
Many of you know that I defend much of mainstream climate science, including climate modeling as an enterprise. Where I depart of the “mainstream” is how much warming has occurred, how much future warming can be expected, and what should be done about it from an energy policy perspective.
From the information provided by Google about my violations, in terms of the number of ads served, by far the most frequented web pages here at drroyspencer.com with “unreliable and harmful claims” are our (UAH) monthly global temperature update pages. This is obviously because some activists employed by Google (who are probably weren’t even born when John Christy and I received both NASA and American Meteorological Society awards for our work) don’t like the answer our 43-year long satellite dataset gives. Nevermind that our dataset remains one of the central global temperature datasets used by mainstream climate researchers in their work.
For now I don’t plan on appealing the decision, because it’s not worth the aggravation. If you are considered a “climate skeptic” (whatever that means) Google has already said you are targeted for termination from their Adsense program. I can’t expect their liberal arts-educated “fact checkers” to understand the nuances of the global warming debate.
We're just gonna continue letting the Techno-Tyrants putting their big asses on EVERY ASPECT of free speech and debate and ATTACK the very innate skeptical nature of science. The people they hire to MAKE these calls are NOT QUALIFIED to judge scientific discussion and CERTAINLY NOT qualified to decide what's dangerous discussion or debate. I've degoogled my life best I can. Suggest others do the same. But to let you know -- YOU CAN NOT BE FREE OF THEM anymore. They have hooked up with the OTHER techno-tyrants to put you where they want you.
Waiting for the puff of smoke to take out my computer.
