I just did this search on google, thinking you were nuts (lol). Its real. I then typed movies after Reddit and the movie sub pops up 1st like it should. TIL and others search normally (showing the sub as the first search result). Conspiracy sub does not. It comes up 4th. hm.... This comes up second "Controversial Reddit communities - Wikipedia".... lol controversial? Didnt know looking for the truth in all corners of life was, controversial. I would argue its intelligent.

Also fuck the CIA or NSA or whoever it was that started this flat earth bullshit, I'm sick of explaining to friends and family you guys put that shit out there to make us (truth seekers) look retarded.

Google is known for censoring and blacklisting, I would recommend using alternatives like DuckDuckGo instead.

Drop Google.

DuckDuckGo isn’t as safe as you think. Searx.me

Seconded. Searx.me

I hate that now Im immediately suspicious that you two are searx.me shills, and it's a cia honeypot. Please try to put my mind at ease

yeah, I've never heard of that site, now all of a sudden 2 people push it in the same hour?

that was my first post ever about searx?

Maybe they assume we're shills, maybe they are shills that don't want others to use it. Who knows?

I've mentioned it before in my comments... I'm not going to search. Whenever anyone brings up duck duck good, I have a tendency to drop it bc ddg uses google engines... This giving you the sunrise results. Ddg does say it does not track, but idk if I'm buying it.

Also I would rather see results that aren't sorted by the algorithms of Google as well.

Care to elaborate?

I think it's a CIA cover, as they've infiltrated much of the deep web.

I can think random services are a CIA cover as well, but those thoughts aren't going to be very credible without evidence to back them up. I'm not saying that you're necessarily wrong, I just would like to see a bit of evidence before I bite.

Looks like a neat concept, and I appreciate that I can pull the source and run it on a trusted server.

I would like to take this moment to plug yacy, which has interesting decentralization properties - and is also open source. I think this is the long term solution we need to invest (energy, time) in.

It's the second search result I get on google just below a guy and kfc.

I thought this is why we repealed net neutrality. And didn’t google want to keep it? How are they still allowed to censor us?

Net Neutrality only affects ISPs, not services like Google Search, YouTube, Facebook ect

Oh hey so that talking point was completely bullshit then. Who coulda known?

It's keyed to your own various searches and not indicative of what any real majority of people have searched out and repeatedly visited before you.

Utterly useless when it comes to one thing that made it attractive in any particular search the first place, including some of the more obscure and off the beaten path sort of things with a lot of reliable and well researched info regarding them. It's pretty plain that they're now being as unhelpful as they can, especially when it comes to that.

I noticed this yesterday too.

There's a lot of stuff coming out saying that Google discriminates against conservatives and had suggestions circling internally to delist conservative sites. And by "conservative" what that means is anything that isn't strictly very far left neomarxism.

Probably for the best.

Yes! It's so weird. It used to pop up when I googled it. I come on once or twice a day. Now nothing for the past few days. All the other Reddit pages I visit pop up except this one.

Wow great to see your submission got way more attention than the shills on mine. I was reporting this all week. Glad to see someone else notice the sub dissapearing.

Totally saw this happen as well. Shouldn't really be surprising to anyone, though.

I literally was going to post about this as well. We are being buried.

I'm surprised this many people still use google in this sub.

you search conspiracy to find this sub? ok

I remember that I could find many links to conpiracy theory websites on the first page of a google search for any conspiracy theory. That was about five years ago. Now the first page and beyond is almost exclusively articles either debunking, laughing at, or decrying the danger of all conspiracy theories and the ignorant lunacy of any of their believers. Did Google change something or am I just being paranoid?
