the_donald was famously excluded from the Google search index but as of today that is no longer the case, it is now being fully indexed and returned via Google.

The same applies to searches relating to scandals that conservatives have been trying to expose but previously could not due to silicon valley censorship.

Is this a glitch or has something changed behind the scences?

It showed back up when the mod purge happened. They knew it would bring scrutiny. Also they planned to take it over and use it for there own purpose.

The autists are scrambling to archive everything they can on this.

I never thought I'd hear this sentence relevant to the culture war, but here I am.

Crunchy folks are marveling at the amount of antivax resources suddenly available, sites that were previously unsearchable. Hmmm....

Google announced yesterday that they expect to have AI errors because of everyone telecommuting and being short handed in manual content review processes. Looks like removing the people in the middle may work out in Trumps favor.

Correction....

Looks like removing the people in the middle may actually provide more honest search results, and when there is honesty, it works in Trumps favor

I have no doubt it was manually adjusted to specifically target TD. But I doubt someone had to go in daily to block it, or requires anymore attention then simply adjusting a couple of settings one time. They'd likely set whatever evil parameters, and leave it be. Being understaffed shouldn't have anything to do with it.

Something else has to do with it. Although I can't imagine what.

Maybe there's been a change in management and they don't/can't pull their censorship anymore but they also need to pawn it off as not being their fault. This gives them cover to do it without pissing off purple haired people.

Youtube put out a post about how they're short-handed, so all content removed is removed by a bot, not a person.

we are not seeing this effect because they dont have enough staff. their filter could run un-maned no problem.

they have some bot/program that does this.

and that feature has obviously been disabled.

Wouldn't that be some shit if these companies arent as advanced as most people think they are. They simply employ mass amount of people to manually suppress it giving the impressing they have some sort of complex algorithm
