Google's true origin partly lies in CIA and NSA research grants for mass surveillance
https://qz.com/1145669/googles-true-origin-partly-lies-in-cia-and-nsa-research-grants-for-mass-surveillance
I thought I'd remind people of this old article from 2017 on the CIA/NSA origins of Google and how it was specifically designed to make the tracking and surveiling of internet users as easy as possible.
Tumblr media
From its very inception, the programs and capabilities that make Google such a powerful search engine were created using CIA/NSA research funds passed along through unclassified NSF (National Science Foundation) grants to develop the technologies necessary to closely track American citizens and foreign users of the internet. Even the internet itself was created as part of a DARPA research program.
Tumblr media
So should it come as a surprise to anyone that Google is filled with US and NATO propaganda today? Now I know that's not what this article is specifically referring to, however I think it's a continuation of the same kind of processes for surveillance and information space control between tech giants like Google and the CIA.
An example of what I mean would be any attempts search Google about its record of displaying Western propaganda. You can make the search as specific as possible, specifically referencing US and NATO propaganda or even specific incidents, but your search results will always display endless articles about how Google is supposedly filled with Chinese and Russian propaganda. No mention at all of US or NATO propaganda, even though I can name probably a dozen or so articles I've read over the years about just that. None of them show. Just the articles about how Chinese and Russian propaganda are proliferating online.
Yet, when I search for any kind of contested incidents where it's generally accepted that no one knows whether the incident was caused by Russia or the US, only the articles with the US Govt narrative will show. Again, even though I know of at least a few specific English-language articles about the issue from the Russian perspective. Those articles cannot be found in a simple search and I must go to the source site to find the articles. Only the US government narrative shows on Google.
And you can repeat this pattern for various contentious issues where the US Govt's propaganda dominates search engines like Google and alternative views must be sought directly from their source sites.
So it should come as no surprise that Google itself was created thanks to CIA/NSA grants passed along through the NSF. Similar to how the CIA/NSA passes along grants to promote Western Propaganda outlets in foreign countries using the National Endowment For Democracy or the NED.

A heads up about this new Times article, which somhow passed the editors despite consisting solely of "anonymous sources" and being written by a journalist with a history of anti-ukrainian bias.
Tumblr media
Olexiy Arestovych recently came out as one of the sources Shuster spoke with. For an average person Arestovych is just a former speaker. But his less known lore is that Arestovych is a self-described exorcist; he has several scandals with ukrainephobic narratives; he has on several occasions spread straigt up russian propaganda about the war; and one of his recent scandals was a leak from his private seminar, in which he shared his opinions that, I quote, "a natural desire a man has towards a woman is to choke her, I mean of course fuck her first, but then choke, and keep your hands on her neck for several hours to be sure that that thing is really dead".
Sharing this tidbit just to give you a prespective of the quality of Shuster's "sources" and, as a consequence, Time's journalistic standards.

Propaganda: In the 1950s, Fury was one of the most marketable horses out there -- there's a book series, a comic series, a TV show, and one of the earliest Breyer models. I couldn't tell you if they're all supposed to be the same horse, or just similarly named knockoffs of each other, but collectively they show that Fury was one of the original Beautiful Wild Horses Who Could Only Be Understood/Ridden By One Devoted Human. Fury helped establish an entire genre, and it looks like everyone wanted a piece of him.

EXCITING NEW TOURNAMENT.
I collect every single named character in septimus heap and make them fight and u all get to participate <3 just submit any character as long as they have a name. I don't care if they're a main character or not. If they have a name then put them in the poll <3
There's going to be ideally a bracket for every book + one at the end where all the winners get to fight. That's why I need u to say what book they were introduced in in the form it's so I can sort them like that
Propaganda not only allowed but HIGHLY encouraged this is the dumbest idea I've ever had I need smth to make it even sillier
Rules r in the form but also extra rule. U have to be super niceys to me or I'll cry <3
