Modern society seems so quick to want to muzzle people. Black and White Label and Kill No discourse. No dissention. No tolerance of different ideologies. The modern large corporations use AI to automatically block people. It seems to me society allowed crazy people to lie in 1980. Society dealt with it. Nowadays people are "shadow banned" and even doxxed online by evil netizen mobs. Scary.... I started off believing in "Free Speech"..... still do.... I have learned though that you cannot be allowed to yell "fire!" in cinema. There is a line.... it just seems like the world has moved that line way too close to embracing "Big Brother" mentality.

Hundreds of Google employees attached their signatures to a Medium postcalling on the company to squash Project Dragonfly. Project...Dragonfly...? It's the codename for a censored search engine Google's reportedly working on for use in China. Remember, Google pulled out of China in 2010 and hasn't been back since. Here's why employees are concerned: Dragonfly could hypothetically enable China to polish its act as your Big Brother, and not the kind that gives you a wedgie—we're talking state surveillance. More from the employee-backed letter... "Providing the Chinese government with ready access to user data...would make Google complicit in oppression and human rights abuses." "Dragonfly would also enable censorship and government-directed disinformation, and destabilize the ground truth on which popular deliberation and dissent rely." FWIW, Google told NPR it isn't close to launching a search product in China. Zoom out: From the recent walkout to protest workplace issues to the outcry over the company's involvement in a Pentagon drone program, Google employees have shown a level of public dissent not seen anywhere else in Big Tech.
