Razer's occam - free speech and the rhetoric of "politically correct" censorship

[Zenaan Harkness]

Google's slanderous lie turns into "blinking innocence" assertion
that all apps must "adequately censor", sorry I mean "adequately
moderate" their users, notwithstanding that Twitter and other apps do
not satisfy the same test.

Google's evil on the record:

Google, the "See no evil" Kangz.

Warning: unredacted email below misspells, misnames and misrepresents
"Lauren Kangztein".

If naughty, naughty words offend you, You should be very pleased with
Google.
