with the recent news about the things that were said about Google slowing down Firefox on purpose, are they doing this because they severily dislike Firefox/open source? :c If so, that wouldn’t make a lot of sense!!! Because Google loves open source too. I read they were doing this to stop adblockers, and well if you use Firefox without those, it can work maybe! I use Chromium and Google Chrome on Ubuntu u

    I like Google but I capitalize all names… and anyway I use Firefox sometimes too!! I think Google does make very nice things. And about the Dragonfly project… well, they were honestly just trying to give the chinese market a better search engine, but it was a good action of Google to stop it because it would have been used badly!! n.n By the way, I use Duckduckgo on Chrome.

        I wish I was paid, why would they pay me?? I’m not a popular person, and either way, while I do enjoy and I’m a fan of Google, my main stuff is software and technology, and Python :3

          of course someone who is under contract is legally obligated to deny getting paid. maybe just a NDA, but either way

          and dude, not even the kid i went to school with, who invented ‘bumptop’ and sold that shit to google, eats as much of the propaganda as you have and puked it up in such perfect form. just send me a link to your handler or whatever, I can make a much more convincing account. not looking to take over your job, but i can do it better

          Edit: link to bumptop

            excuse me?? I’m being honest and truthful, I’m not being paid, and if I ever get paid by Google, it will be because I’ll be working in their offices!! By the way I also have Mastodon, Telegram, and Matrix. So I can’t be paid… And by the way that kid has achieved great things!! That’s very good for that person.

              That’s unfortunate because your posts make you look very dishonest. In one post you are unfamiliar with basic topics and in the next you seem to be well informed about some of their obscure failed projects.

              If you’re not a paid actor then you’re someone who just likes to provoke people online which makes you an asshole as well.

                I’m very sorry if my impression was that one :c I don’t want to harm or offend anyone, and yes, I do know some of their obscure projects but that doesn’t mean that I also have to know everything about other stuff. But thank you for that criticism n.n

              im done after this, but dont matter how many accounts you have, someone paid by google to spew their propaganda would have to have a lot of accounts, on many platforms. Now i almost want to peek around and find out just what you are really up to

              you are a fraud, i wont block you, but ill be ignoring you from now on
