They really have just given up on being a good search engine at this point huh?

Everyone losing their minds over this like Firefox doesn't exist.

Stop using Chrome.

The reason this is even a big problem is because everyone piled on Google's browser despite all the obvious reasons that wasn't gonna be a good idea on the long term.

I never understood why anybody thought a company – whose principal business is advertising and data mining – wouldn't eventually rug pull everyone like this with their browser as soon as it hit critical mass for market share.

Not a single mention of the word terrorism. When the fuck is the media gonna start calling a spade a spade?

The fact that this comment I've made alone might be grounds for arrest there is all that needs saying about it.

Geez the reporting around this has been ridiculously sensationalist

He added: “Using imprecise language as an excuse to create plausible ambiguity about whether defendant violated this Court’s unequivocal gag order is not a defense; the subject of Donald Trump’s public statement to the press was unmistakably clear.”

Damn I really wanna see a lot more of this kinda scrutiny on the weasel word bullshit.

you should just close the window and never open it again
