China is attacking the search engine that's building them a biased search engine? I know about them building that engine, which ought to be illegal for an American company to do. But then you've got the NBA apologizing for a team exec criticizing the Chinese treatment of Hong Kong. The reason this country is in trouble is too many Americans would sell us out to get rich.

Besides that Duckduckgo is a way cooler name than Google.

Not attacking google, manipulating the available data that Google's algorithms use. The attack isn't on google itself, it's on the users, skewing search results to indirectly alter what people consider normal. For instance, during the H1N1 outbreak, it would have been considered abnormal to the point of a mental illness to see people walking around with face coverings. But, the attitude towards it changed pretty quick during Covid. When people who would have otherwise resisted masks start googling it, and all they see is CNN, Washington post, vox, msnbc, etc. ad naseum, all presenting opinion pieces supporting the argument that people should wear masks, what would you expect to happen? People think that "experts" and "everyone else" say(s) it's good, who are they to argue? There's transgenderism, white privilege, and so on, which are not supported by science or reason, and which have gained normalization in a relatively short period of time.
I'm not saying it's all or only China, and I am fairly certain Google is aware of what is being done, but they don't care to try and control how others influence the available information, especially if they agree with the agenda, or it will get them access to the giant China Market, they only index it.
That's all my take on it. Don't know what or how much of that is actually going on, but it's not outside the realm of possibility, and I find it highly probable. On the other hand, it could just be that what is happening throughout western civilization is the result of too many people with untreated mental disorders getting access to wide audiences via social media, and spreading their delusions. It really is a fascinating time to be alive.

I remember me and my brother trolling dudes in internet chatrooms on dialup when we were 13. We'd get them all worked up and tell them we were hot chics and then be like, "Feel up my leg, what do you feel?", and then be like, "Na, you feel my nutz cause I'm a dude" and theyd get super pissed. Ahhh it was great laughs.

When a company's motto is "Do no evil", you knida have to assume that the prince of darkness is involved somehow.
