Google cracks down on climate change denial by targeting ads​

LONDON (AP) — Google is cracking down on digital ads promoting false climate change claims or being used to make money from such content, hoping to limit revenue for climate change deniers and stop the spread of misinformation on its platforms.

The company said Thursday in a blog post that the new policy will also apply to YouTube, which last week announced a sweeping crackdown of vaccine misinformation.

“We’ve heard directly from a growing number of our advertising and publisher partners who have expressed concerns about ads that run alongside or promote inaccurate claims about climate change,” Google said. “Advertisers simply don’t want their ads to appear next to this content.

You tube will shut out many conservative sites. That is their goal. .. Any talk on election reform, climate change,firearms,CTR and BLM will be met with a swift ban With facebook and Youtube shutting us down it is just as bad as living in communist China... With their social scores....

When you make a deal with people for money, you give them power over you. People need to start realizing this.

They need to understand, when the service is free, you are not the consumer, you are the product.

I am trying to ban g**gle, but the alternatives don't seem that much better. They are everywhere, and I don't think it is even possible to avoid exposure at this point, aside from living in complete isolation from humans and all modern conveniences.

It would be interesting(terrifying) to see g**gle from an "admin" login...
