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?
My guess is they turned it off as a sort of atlas shrugged style stunt. I expect they'll point to all the recently exposed material and use it to make the argument that censorship is necessary.
That or this is just them a/b testing a new change to the algorithm. Perhaps they've identified you as the sort of person that wants to see this type of stuff and are no longer hiding it from you, but it might remain shadow banned to the rest of the public. The other possibility is that this is the unfiltered version and they've put the opposite side in a filter bubble instead, its hard to tell how many bubbles there are and who is trapped in which.
I do get worried about the unforeseen consequences of being marked as a right-winger by the big algorithm. I have fairly mainstream conservative christian views. I don't hate the jews or want the US to be a white ethnostate and I don't enjoy being lumped into those groups. I try to hide the scent by staying away from certain topics on youtube and searches but we can only do so much. Its scary though, lenders, insurance job applications, there's no telling how they use our data and where htey source it from because so much is moving around. I often wonder how my info is being used against me.
