I don’t need other people to decide for me what’s true.
In fact I find the growing support for that frightening, given that the self-appointed arbiters of truth in corporate and social media have repeatedly, objectively been shown to be wrong, and from my personal perspective pushing a social and political agenda that is not my own.
I’m a big boy, I’ll decide for myself what counts as “misinformation” thanks very much.
- jmull 5y agoThey aren't telling you what's true. They're just ranking search results. And a search engine has to rank search results -- not everything can be at the top. The question isn't whether DDG should rank search results, but what criteria they should use. I personally think the usefulness and credibility of the information are pretty good criteria, and do not think any exceptions should be made for political subjects.
