The road to serfdom

Published on Aug 2, 2017 YouTube's new censorship policies are right out of Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four, and are designed to shut down the growing independent media outlets and critics like myself. YouTube is demonetizing my videos because they're too "controversial" or about "sensitive topics." I am preparing myself to go "Google free".  It's quite a chore since my Email is Google;  I have a real dependence on Google's  search engine services; Blogger is owned and operated by Google, My Win10 is  run (by my preference) by Google,  and  on and on.   Amazon, too, (which is no longer cheap) is another threat.  I have taken to comparing JET and  WalMart  against  Amazon prices, and  both always win. WalMart  allowed  Amazon to  outperform  delivery service, but is  making strides. Plus, I see in Jeff Bezos a real national security threat.  That Facebook clown is too much of a clown to be a longterm threat.  If I used FB with any regularity ... well, that's the point.  I have an account, but can't stand the "social engineering." I am at war. Oh.  There's this too. Google’s new program to track shoppers sparks a federal privacy complaint
