This story appears to confirm that Google sees ideological influence as part of their core mission. I don&amp;#x27;t really object to that when the ideology is about transparency, neutrality, objectivity, so this isn&amp;#x27;t anti-ideology.  But I do object when it&amp;#x27;s about censorship, advocacy and feelings, because my own ideology is pro-Enlightenment. So I&amp;#x27;ve de-Googled, and I will be ready to de-Kagi, de-Zoho, de-LineageOS, etc. if they become similarly captured. I just hope that ends with me still having access to modern tech.</text></comment>
