• LOL!! Exactly 48 hours after I quit Google News for good... my work (job) E-mail account receives this E-mail from Gulag: "Roy, make the most of Google News"... what a timing. Sending actual SPAM to promote Google News. Well, one reason I quit Google News is that it became technical and practically awful.

• I am so glad I did about 18 hours of video footage earlier this year to demonstrate just absolutely awful Google News had become. I demonstrated this using patent-centric 'news'. GOOGLE NEWS IS NOT A SOURCE OF NEWS. Maybe it was over a decade ago. Now it is predominantly noise, FUD, lies, webspam, scams. It's gamed from the inside and from the outside.

Many of the rest are just Microsoft and Gulag 'skins', not real search engines. They're curated by American military contractors.
