If that's all true, then his administration is doing exactly what the corrupt Biden administration puppetmasters did trying to use big tech to control the narrative through political censorship.
It's fucking pathetic both parties always end up being flip sides of the same worthless coin.
Trump used Google's efforts to silence conservatives to rally the base and cruise in with winning a second term. Now Google is moving toward controlling all speech with their AI. Now the Trump admin wants to restrict what reporters publish, so it seems the current admin and Google have a lot in common when it comes to control. Even Fox News won't sign onto the new press policy the Pentagon is pushing. It's all just disgusting if you ask me. Democrats are horrible, but I never expected Republicans to join them in silencing the people.

Major Broadcast Networks, Fox News And CNN Issue Joint Statement Declining To Sign On To More Restrictive Pentagon Press Policy</b>
<blockquote>The major broadcast networks, along with Fox News and CNN, issued a joint statement opposing the Pentagon’s new restrictions on press access to the complex, concluding that it is “without precedent and threatens core journalistic protections.”</blockquote>Full story: <a href="https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/major-broadcast-networks-fox-news-171555296.html">https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/major-broadcast-networks-fox-news-171555296.html</a>
Hey I feel sad for anyone hit by Google. I am offering a commentary SEO Audit to help anyone who was affected by this update. Just msg me on X or Facebook and I'll get around to seeing it.
Sounds about right.... He only started all this anti-BigTech in his first administration to get them to switch sides. #JobDone
Is Google going to appeal? If so, hopefully, they'll shoot themselves in the foot with that one, as the appeals judge should make the remedies harder. I don't know about the law, but didn't I hear that DOJ would appeal if the weak remedies didn't break up the monopoly? I don't know or think that they can, though, appeal down the line.
I hope, but expect, that Leonie won't disrupt the Google ad system. It's a near clear-cut thing to do, after all, Goldman Sachs can't own the NYSE, so Google should own the buy and sell side of things.
It's more likely a conspiracy to obstruct justice. The Trump admin, which is too cozy with Google, likely leaned on the judge to go very soft on Google. Then the Trump admin likely instructed their DOJ to not appeal Judge Mehta's ridiculous remedies that honestly condone all the harm Google has done.
Just when you think what more could google do to steal/take more traffic, Surprise! I've actually seen this test going on for a while now though. Must of expended the test then. Rankings up, Traffic down and Conversions down.
Google keeps dragging things out and juggling the few users it has left, deceiving them.
Soon they will have to go through an ad page and click on one of them to see the search results.
In a quarter, it will have to tell the truth and declare losses. It no longer has as many users as before; people are changing the way they search for things. I have changed the way I search, now I use ChatGPT much more for complicated queries.

Anyone still in gov't past 80 isn't still there because they love what they do like some in the private sector. These aholes are only still there to maintain status quo for the deep state and keep enriching themselves in a system they spent decades knowing how to game from the inside.
I thought you was joking and that page was for a living biography but no .... <a href="https://news.bloomberglaw.com/us-law-week/oldest-us-judge-marks-100th-birthday-then-its-back-to-work">https://news.bloomberglaw.com/us-law-week/oldest-us-judge-marks-100th-birthday-then-its-back-to-work

Surely the effort required to hear complex cases should be undertaken by younger people, aged 60 Max. People over 70 (too high?) who refuse to retire should hear simple cases, pick-pocketing or shoplifting, where the bar is low and not much effort is needed to follow the case. If you refuse to listen to a simpler case, then you should be removed due to insanity.
Google is definitely doing this to trick users into clicking ads. To increase profits, Google must steal from the already poor ROI Google's shitty ads have now. Would be smart for advertisers to draw the line and end their campaigns.
Google's ad concealment scam is something the Department of Injustice should bring up in the remedies Judge Brinkema considers. But at 81 years old, Judge Brinkema is probably more concerned about finding a nursing home that offers bingo more than one night per week. Could be worse though, the case could have been assigned to Judge Leo Glasser <a href="https://www.nyed.uscourts.gov/district-judge-i-leo-glasser">https://www.nyed.uscourts.gov/district-judge-i-leo-glasser</a> who's 100 years old and still decomposing behind the bench. Age limits are needed in all of Government.
Exactly. Any spokesasshole for this corrupt AF company are just paid liars for Google and they're useful idiots. Everything they publicly say is designed only for deception and gaslighting.
This is about not letting users to realize that the "results" they're seeing are actually ads, until they scrolled past them, because of the label now being after the ads, not in their headers
Robby Stein is another lying soy pos Googler, but we should just be glad we didn't have to see hideous shitdemon Liz Reid comment/gaslight about anything this time.
Hopefully Google will at least wait until Halloween until subjecting the public to the sight of that thing again.
I danced to Google's tune for too long. Optimize for this, optimize for speed, do AMP, this, that, the other. The only reason I maintain my sites is because they make a few hundred bucks a month, and it's better than nothing. I will not lift another finger for a company that is planning to replace us with AI anyway
<blockquote>Google says this is to make navigation easier, but I suspect it is to drive more clicks (likely confused clicks on ads - at least in the short term).</blockquote>Yep, just the latest Google deception. Under the ruse of "upholding our industry-leading standards for ad label prominence" was at least a hilarious touch of arrogant bullshit they added.
That's fantastic news! It's about time Google put out an official, clear guide on the negative review extortion scams that have been such a headache for so many businesses.
exactly! just like thaat damn "helpful content update"... they said the very same back then, then what happened???
now that many are leaving the line, they come up with this new PR stunt to retain the remaining webmasters or entice those who left to come back.
no fucking way.
Sorry guys but these are not ranking factors, the leaked document pretty clearly states they are for SAFT NLP processing. Not directly used for rankings.
I can understand where you're coming from. For what I search for personally, I can find everything I need without giving Google my search business. I forget how many years it's been since we quit spending on G Ads, maybe 4 or 5? I'd have to look. I don't use Chrome, Gmail and we took GA off our site a while back (maybe 2-3 years ago). I've been done giving Google my business and data for a while.
