Take down order and more for Censored News
By Brenda Norrell
Censored News
Censored News is a small operation, a labor of love. It is a service to Indigenous Peoples and human rights advocates.
So why the bullying from Google Blogger, where I have been posting for the last nine years?
First, Google Blogger yanked off an article last week with a take down order (Canadian police kill Anonymous member defending Treaty 8 land from dam.)
After I published the facts about the take down, perhaps in retaliation, Google Blogger posted an ugly sign on my blog for European readers, warning them about cookies. The ugly sign isn't even correct. Censored News does not use Adsense or any form of advertising.
Further, Google never gave me a copy of the so-called complaint which led to the take down order. So, there is no way to know what the offending content was. The post has multiple links and screenshots on it.
Here's the Censored News WordPress site, which is up and running again. It will serve as a backup in case Google Blogger follows through on its threats and yanks the whole nine years of Censored News work off the Internet. www.censorednews.wordpress.com
For now, we will keep posting on Google Blogger as well. We will let you know if there's more bullying.
Here's Google Blogger's notices:

| Above: Google Blogger notice of take down order, but there is no copy of the complaint so the post, which has multiple links and screenshots, can be fixed. |
