First two results on brave search are to the ADL and the SPLC: https://i.imgur.com/SJWhZs6.jpg
they really outrank everything? Amazon, instagram, etc??
Looks like the brave results are identical to googles: https://i.imgur.com/UgqjKve.jpg
Google really is freaking shameless. "We don't have our hand on the scales". They are 100% publishers not a platform.
If we could get a government with guts (or even a company) to sue them for antitrust and they were forced to disclose source code and search algorithms in court I think we would be amazed to see all the manual settings and filters they have in place.
Someone already leaked some of the code to Project Veritas years ago and it's exactly as you stated. They rig the results and shape the algorithm based on what they do and don't want you to see, complete with illegal blacklists.
Plus, the court system is corrupt as they recently threw out some Facebook cases related to their very obvious anti-trust violations committed by the company: https://www.nytimes.com/2021/06/28/technology/facebook-ftc-lawsuit.html
The exact same thing would happen in a Google anti-trust suit.
Big Tech is literally bigger than the law.
They work hand-in-hand with the government. No politician would be stupid enough to go after the deep state's toys.
Social media is another scheme along the lines of the Five Eyes. The US government isn't "technically" suppressing people's rights, so it's not "technically" illegal.....
