Bummer...
China. Search engines. Google censors its Chinese SERPs. Yeah, an "accident." Sure.
CIA takes out thought leader in rival search engine to give Google a better chance in a market worth billions. Google’s increasing success in China worked to propagate western ideology, breaking down the communist regime Then again, maybe he just had an accident Gab? ;)
Nice comment bait Nick, it reeled me in!
I read that its very suspicious
Gab’s doubts were not unreasonable. I wouldn’t blame anyone in particular, but the doubt is normal.
