As the Big Tech oligarchs continue their purge of any group and/or individual that does not bow to their will and directives, and/or who might advocate an idea or opinion that does not conform to their own rigid ideology, we present below available alternatives to the platforms hosted by the Big Tech oligarchs.

The various providers of the alternatives presented below – from social media to Internet browsers and email – have, to this point, committed to supporting your 1st Amendment rights to free speech, to peaceably assemble, and to use their platforms to petition your government for a redress of grievances.

* The alternatives offered below are suggestions only and we urge you to do your own due diligence before making any change.

 

Social Media alternatives to Twitter & Facebook, etc.

ProtonMail is incorporated in Switzerland.  And, all their servers are located in Switzerland, which means that all user data is protected by strict Swiss privacy laws.

 

Alternative Search Engine

Currently, Google is the most ubiquitous search engine that individuals use to search the Internet. Unfortunately, Google is not a magical fairy cloud of technology that exists purely to help you find information. Google is a corporation. Google does not work for users; Google works for advertisers and website publishers, which provide virtually all of Google’s revenues. Google Maps, Google Earth, Google Talk, Google Reader, Gmail; everything Google has ever given you for free is funded by those little blue lines of text that appear at the top of your Gmail account, or in the sidebar of your search results. Then, when you use those services, Google collects information about you. It uses what it knows about you to target ads specifically to your personal tastes. That’s how Google is able to maintain a near monopoly in online advertising.

Google is currently as powerful as most nations on this planet. According to Google Watcher Scott Cleland, “In monitoring Google as closely as I do, it has become increasingly clear that Google does not believe it has to obey the rules, standards, regulations and laws that others routinely obey and respect. Google increasingly operates like a self-declared, virtual sovereign nation, largely unaccountable to the rules and mores of the rest of the world.” And, like a nation such as North Korea, Venezuela or China, Google blatantly censures and manipulates its search results. A string of leaks over the past four years suggests that the tech giant has gone above and beyond to suppress conservative and independent media.

You have most likely heard or read about a detailed analysis by Dr. Richard Epstein, a Democrat, on how Google has been swinging votes in the last two national elections and probably swung up to 15 million votes in the election of 2020. Dr. Epstein is a Senior Research Psychologist for the American Institute for Behavioral Research and Technology who monitors Google’s practices aimed at swinging elections to Democrat candidates. Epstein’s analysis supports Google’s targeting of its search engine to favor the left.
