Not sure what your point is here. Google went to-the-max apeshit insane in their censoring/blocking of gun-related product searches recently, to the point that Google Products search wouldn't return anything labelled with the color burgundy. Surely Google thinks gun manufacturers are so intensely bad as to have 'punished' them via search controls Far, far more than they have here with Kodi.
Aside: Neither of these seems like useful exercises for Google.
- TomMckenny 9y ago"armalite" auto completes and even helpfully suggest the AR15, the exact weapon used in all the most spectacular massacres. I'm not suggesting Google interfere with either. I'm suggesting copyright forces have an unreasonable amount of clout, much of it invisible. More even than a mass movement against school massacres.
- bendbro 9y agoTry searching for "shopping" results for "ar15", "armalite 15", and "ak47". It will show they have explicitly filtered out "ar15" shopping search results
- grawprog 9y agoLol and so? If school shooters had used ak47's, which fire a larger caliber bullet, are extremely available, have higher capacity magazines and will never breakdown. No one would give the slightest fuck, because everyone already knows bad guys use ak's. American's just have their panties.in a knot because the good guy guns are being used by bad guys. Hell you can go buy a semi automatic shotgun with a big enough clip that would leave a classroom splattered with nothing but pieces of children....but yeah....ar15's...Lol.
- SippinLean 9y agoGoogle prohibited gun-related sales since 2012. The "burgundy" incident followed the Parkland shooting where 17 were murdered, it was a mistake quickly rectified. Many sites changed their policies regarding guns in anticipation of the changes to Section 230.
