Barb_ Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Thank you for stating this. Look closely at those who are accusing others of "fake news." They are the ones guilty of propaganda. In other words, "He who smelt it, dealt it." Can you spell that out using proper nouns rather than allusions? I'm not following you. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hornblower Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 No. Being batshit is why some dude did that. I don't agree. Believing a fake conspiracy story is the crazy part but on his side is the fact that it was spread by influential people, including some connected to the peotus. IF you believed that this was true, and you believed authorities were ignoring such a horrific thing and people needed rescuing, isn't it reasonable and brave to try to do something about it? In different circumstances the person would have been a hero. He was alas a pawn in a misinformation game which is being played by the highest players in the land. 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RegGuheert Posted December 7, 2016 Author Share Posted December 7, 2016 I think Google has already begun reworking the algorithm. Until recently any number of benign searches would autocomplete into hate-speech or conspiracy theory territory. For example, "women should..." competed into "make me a sandwich" or "just shut up". "Muslims are" autocompleted into "evil" or "terrorists". I don't see that sort of thing anymore. How is this a problem? I have no problem with that, at all. It sounds like an excellent improvement to autocomplete. (Note that autocomplete in no way limits or changes the results that I might get when I type in the search terms I desire. Rather, it is based on the search terms that others have entered.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKL Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 (edited) And "truth" is one of those amazing things that changes over time. Someone reports a fact. There are interests who want nobody to believe that fact, so they put a lot into trouncing the reporter and anyone who dares to consider the possibility of that fact. Pretty soon it is accepted that the fact is not true. Years later it re-surfaces as the truth again - because it is true. It's always been true. Of course there is fake news - that is nothing new. It's also not new that some people believe ridiculous things. But none of that changes the fact that truth is often attacked as untruth. I think we need to let people figure it out for themselves. As for "dangers," OK we have one nutso who has a history of doing other violent acts, caught threatening a business owner with a gun. (Not particularly unusual in DC btw). But the pizzagate stories on the web aren't encouraging violence per se. In contrast, there are so many things on the web that do outright encourage violence, such as radical Muslim clerics encouraging or ordering jihad, other radical groups encouraging violence and mayhem etc. Why aren't these censored, and why didn't this discussion even come up until recently, if we are so concerned about not allowing people to be influenced to do evil by the internet? It's been suggested that the pizzagate stuff is being overblown by the media in order to distract from other substantive information released by wikileaks.

And that includes Big Moneybags running things behind the scenes. I do understand what you're saying & I do share your concern. I think this is a HUGE problem. But the fact is that private companies already make rules - when it comes to search & how search engines work. Search engine algorithms are not natural, kwim? They're not bound by laws of nature. They're manufactured. They're coded to certain parameters. Some team of coders decided that this is how a search engine should work, this is what results it should give. What those parameters are, and how they're being exploited by people for their own ends is the issue. I think we (citizens of western democracies) urgently need a crash course on search engines, data & information. Many people still don't know that their search history influences their search results. They're 'in a bubble' because they stay signed in, never clear their cookies or cache & when they search, their engines just give them more of what they had before. If you like looking at natural health remedies when you search for a symptom, you'll get increasingly more natural health sites. That's one huge issue with search engines. Do you want search engines to tailor their results, to give you customized 'relevant' results? Or should they give the same results to everyone? And again, the bigger issue now is not that we as individuals are getting targetted results. It's that large computer programs are running to try to out manipulate the existing google parameters and get certain pages or sites to be returned on the main page when people search for certain terms. Should google take steps to prevent such manipulation of its algorithms? 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What makes you think people inciting violence are not censored? Do you see that happening somewhere? It gets banned from many social media platforms. I don't really see how accusing a business of being involved with child sex trafficking and getting away with it isn't inciting violence. If someone thinks children are in immediate danger wouldn't one expect someone to intercede? The guy thought he was there to rescue children. There wasn't much substance from Wikileaks, the most interesting bit was from Colin Powell's emails and that was because they are hilarious.

As I indicated earlier, the response needs to be against Google if/when they implement policies which limit or distort our freedom of speech. Google is there, and as noted is successful, for providing results that are actual useful to the majority of its users. I don't consider it limiting free speech to bump those less useful results to the next pages. Less facts/less reliability = less useful to *me*. Credibility of the article is just one criteria. There are plenty of other criteria already in use. Any criteria at all messes with a "neutral" result. But that was why people liked Google better in the first place. We didn't want pages and pages of neutral results, we wanted useful results. I'm totally with Murphy, it's not censorship, it's marketing. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
