>Alon Altman, a senior software engineer at Google, pressured the company to sabotage President Trump’s Android phone, according to new evidence released via James Damore’s class-action lawsuit against the company. Calling on the tech giant to use the “full economic force [of] Google for good”, Altman also suggested deleting the gmail accounts of Trump, his administration, and his aides for “abuse.”

>Altman -- who is still employed by the tech giant – also called on Google to blacklist “alt-right’ sites on the Google ad network (she falsely included Breitbart News in this category --- an assertion refuted by a Harvard and M.I.T. study), and take down all “alt right videos” from YouTube. She also called on the tech giant to remove “neo-Nazi sites such as ‘The Daily Stormer'” from the Google search index.

>Altman has been employed at Google for seven years, and according to inside sources, is one of the most radical leftists at the company. She was named as one of the key architects of political discrimination at Google by a whistleblower we interviewed last August. As we have reported, she has previously called on the company to discipline or terminate any employee who agreed with James Damore’s viewpoint diversity manifesto, which argued that there was an atmosphere of political intolerance at Google. Google seemed to follow at least one of Altman’s suggestions, effectively kicking The Daily Stormer off the internet in August 2017, a move that was condemned even by the left-leaning Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF). While Google did not follow Altman’s suggestion to remove Breitbart News from its ad network, its employees have begun advising clients to steer clear of Breitbart News, as we exclusively reported in February. More evidence that Google’s ad departments are trying to undermine the revenue of conservative sites has just been released via the Damore lawsuit. According to the lawsuit, when Google’s “Large Customer Sales” (LCS) team learned that the Canadian conservative news site The Rebel Media had been targeted by the far-left group Sleeping Giants, they used this as an excuse to advise clients to remove ad placements from conservative websites. In a template email to Google clients, Marshall Self, Director of Agency at Google, recommended that clients take advantage of Google’s “wide number of controls, including placement exclusions and filters for political content” to remove ads from specific sites, apps, YouTube channels and videos.

>This is the latest information that has been released as part of the Damore lawsuit. Yesterday, we reported that Google cautions many of its managers against rewarding behavior that caters the values of “white-male dominant culture,” including “meritocracy,” “individual achievement” and “avoiding conflict.” Three new plaintiffs have joined Damore’s lawsuit against Google, which alleges that the company discriminates against white, Asian, male, and conservative individuals.

Since when "meritocracy" is white male dominated?

Or do they admit, by saying this, that everybody else can't have any merit?

No, they use advanced hand-waving techniques and conclude that it is because white men are oppressing everyone else all the time.

(((Alon Altman))). Of course it had to be a Jew, and of course it had to be a woman. That's the combo for super chutzpah.

You could look at this as a story about cybersecurity, nigger. If (((they))) think they can get away with doing it to the POTUS, they sure as hell can get away with doing it to you. Compromising your security. Topic seems fine for this board tbqh.

It was not a serious proposal, it was the last over-the-top item in a flippant Google+ post.

It tells you things about Google's internal culture but it's being oversold.

The recent Facebook shenanigans made a lot of people flee the service and the stocks to take a dive. They all probably went back already but this all this keeps putting pressure on these companies and leaving scars even if it's a micro scratch. Ever heard about death by a thousand cuts?

Good, I'm a bit sad they didn't end up deleting his account though, people need to realize how much power the big botnet companies have (google, amazon, and microsoft), and that they can use that power for more than just make more money.

remember when he was not purged from twitter, although twitter has strict rules about hate speech and he obviously violated these rules? these rules are enforced for other users, of course.

of course I understand why it's so.

I just said it sucks.

these all are the special cases --- when a company decides to play unfair in order to grab more cash, and almost everyone seems to be okay with that.

I am just tired of this shit. when we will finally have a fucking bright future?

I'm only guessing but Trump uses the galaxy s3 4g with the completed version of Replicant for it (it is incomplete in the website).

His opsec is excellent.
