Google to Face Senate Hearings - International Mass Media

Today society suffers from an overwhelming amount of real news OMISSIONS, selective reporting and outright fabrications and misrepresentations – the Bin Laden assassination stor-ies for example and before that Iraq -- and a huge increase in salacious distractions and mindless twaddle at the expense of critical and necessary information required to maintain a high level of social awareness.

It appears that efforts have been made to intentionally limit the amount of newsworthy material reaching the public in democratic societies – reporting on Libya is a very good example of inaccurate and deceptive reporting, not coincidentally from the same media giants that reported on the illegal Iraq invasion!

It is also no secret that major media owners, Rupert Murdoch among them, belong to a very private New York club known as the CFR or ‘Council on Foreign Relations,’ a title that thinly veils a “perception management” and propaganda organisation! Furthermore, the same faces that attend the CFR also attend the meetings of another shady organisation known as the Bilderberg group, which also, not coincidentally, includes leading serving and retired politicians.

Now if Obama, Hillary Clinton, Murdoch, Fed chairman Bernanke and Google CEO Schmidt all attend the same meeting, which the mass media religiously fails to cover time and again, we can safely conclude a certain commonality of purpose or goals, especially in view of the fact that a uniform political agenda has been followed from the Bill Clinton presidency through to the Obama presidency.

I would like to clearly state at this stage that I am NO conspiracy theorist, however, I also have no difficulty seeing the nose on my face, but to return to the major issue of companies and corporations that are allowed to grow disproportionately large at the expense of the competition and to the expense of society, as is CLEARLY occurring today.

Google, a company that once pledged that it would never abuse its power, promptly did exactly that when it was in the position to do so. Today Google is in bed with the CIA for surveillance purposes, and ‘shapes’ searches according to unfair profit driven motives, which have nothing whatsoever to do with broad information searches. But perhaps Google’s most sordid abuse is the conscious backgrounding of some sites and the favouring of others, again at the expense of broad IMPARTIAL information searches. Google is clearly failing to honour its responsibility to society and to the corporate community.

Most good web loggers these days clearly indicate the number of hits that emanate from Google searches, some loggers even list the search key phrases and the page number on Google from which the hit occurred. Other information from logs also indicates general search PATTERNS and trends in graphical form, what I am highlighting here is that it is a VERY simple matter today to monitor Google searches to a particular site.

Now to a provable account of flagrant Google BIAS for any anti-trust court that wishes to have log and other hard material submitted as evidence.

Readers would note that the site, Cleaves Newswire, has a range of topics, including poetry and prose and as the site is primarily a news site it has a section for re-posts or for material from other sites. So what, I hear Google CEO, Eric Schmidt say; well Mr Schmidt, choke on the following information. This site has been running for six years with considerable poetry content for most of that time, BUT logs indicate that it has never received hits from a poetry key phrase search! It was only AFTER Google was dragged before European anti-trust regulators that the site ‘magically’ began receiving poetry key phrase searches from Google!

Also, hits ‘spiked’ – radically bucking organic trends -- by thousands within weeks of Google appearing before European anti-trust regulators. Clearly certain blocking algorithms and/or other ‘shaping’ search features were hastily removed by Google staff. However, in their rush they appeared to forget that these radical changes could easily be monitored and recorded – in fact, Google is as easily monitored as the users and sites it monitors.

Another obvious trick Google employs to disadvantage certain sites is by failing to list, in front line searches, popular names or phrases. Famous and popular authors are heavily searched on all SE’s including Google; however, Google has chosen not to list the names of these heavily searched writers on this site (and other sites) thereby reducing hits and by consequence lowering rankings, which in turn decreases visibility and popularity.

Many more indications of Google’s PARTIALITY exist, however, they are of a highly technical nature and cannot be discussed in a general paper. Nevertheless, any court that wishes to view this information need only make a request.

What I am highlighting for the brow-beaten public is that a small band of skilled and dedicated activists are easily able to effectively compromise one of the world’s leading criminal Corporations but now to the cherry on the cake.

After our system administrator called a meeting to explain Google’s behaviour we decided to try some social engineering in the hope that we would get a bite, so we panned Eric Schmidt good and proper and bite he did, like a white pointer. Within 12 hours hits from Google ceased altogether, an unprecedented event, it was only after pointing out that we were logging his thin skinned, girlish behaviour that hits slowly returned.

It was truly gratifying to have Mr ‘Bilderberg CIA’ Schmidt dancing to our tune and to view this man’s character or lack thereof. If this man is typical of today’s corporate ruling elite then we can assure readers their time in the sun has come to an end -- what a bunch of reactive, insecure, weak, fairies!

It becomes evident that Mr Schmidt hits a couple of keys on his office computer to see what is being written about him on the web – well, we hope he chokes on this one too!

Clearly, if society is to evolve in a balanced and healthy manner it is IMPERATIVE that media ownership and concentration must be tightly regulated and that no company is allowed to become too big to fail or too big to unfairly monopolise a particular market.

Report from Politico follows:

The WSJ reports that Google has hired a team of lobbyists to influence Congress and has enlisted the very costly services of other experts to prepare or 'stage' rather, a PERFORMANCE at the Senate hearings.

The WSJ report wreaks of orchestrations and MANIPULATIONS, it seems Google has learned NOTHING from its confrontation with anti-trust regulators in Europe. The Senate would do well to take action under anti-trust acts and break the company up into its component parts (divisions) a move that would undoubtedly benefit the marketplace and the public.

Google's flagrant bias is easily detected and demonstrated with open source web logging software; "Visitors" from Sourceforge monitors Google activity very effectively and presents results in a very easy to read graphical and textual format. This is but one of many excellent web logging packages freely available on the Internet.

The more people log Google's extreme bias the easier it is for authorities to gather evidence and deal with abuse from arrogant, IT corporate giants.

Your site is not the only site to be backgrounded by Google's grossly unfair algorithms and other interventions.

Please see link for details of Google's evasive preparations for the hearings -- no indications of integrity or contrition whatsoever. Schmidt's arrogance is beyond measure, the entire industry is aware of it.

CIA partner and Google chairman, Eric 'shit slinger' Schmidt, denied all charges that his company favours their own sites and paying customers in open searches. He said searches are designed for users not sites yet it is sites that have the content users wish to see, hmmm!

I really do not know who Schmidt imagines he is fooling, as it is well known in the industry that Google now shapes individual user searches in its frantic efforts to attract more corporate advertisers looking for targeted markets.

Furthermore, one need only install Scroogle on a site -- a 'Google' search function without the spying features -- to watch hits from Google go through the floor! Now, if Schmidt is to be believed, no site with a Scroogle search option should be penalised by Google, yet we are easily able to PROVE they are.

You are a lying prick Schmidt and you're damn lucky it's an American inquiry cos you'd be hung up to dry in Oz -- lies so easily exposed.
