Already yahoo, google, and Facebook are magically losing all forms of information about this movement and it's goals. pictures on people's websites and Facebook pages relating to protests are being lost. yahoo and google are blocking sites and refusing articles related to the protests.

A word of warning, historically these are the first steps a powerful force uses before killing off or otherwise attacking it's target. Of course manipulating the information so to blame the victims...

There's no Internet media blackout, take the tin foil hat off your head.

Yahoo initially stopped emails because they thought they were spam. They have since apologized.

Google, Yahoo, and other internet companies are supporters of this because they stand to win if Net Neutrality stays intact.

I know personally, yahoo is turning down all articles related to the protests at this moment. While I do hope are correct, yahoo is owned and censored by people paying to with hold information.

Freedom is free if you have the money to make it free for yourself these days.

I got over 35 million results when I just searched on Yahoo. You might want a conspiracy, but there isn't one from those guys yet. This is finally turned into big news and any internet search engine that doesn't offer results will die under the heels of their competitors. Capitalism DOES work... it just needs to be kept separate from the State and kept from abusing the rights of citizens.

Any proof of this? One person at Occupy Boise thought that their FB post had been eliminated. They apparently weren't aware that older posts just get pushed down the list by newer ones.

I don't have hyperlinks, however I do have proof from viable resources that write for yahoo. While I would ask permission before I would link my friends' facebook. Their pictures stored relating to the loss media is truthful. A particular peer of mine had to reload his pictures used different file names to retain his/her Info.

I apologies for the veugity, but my friends anonymity should be respected

Gee, why don't we just goose the free floating paranoia up a bit more?

No, just a honest warning. Take my message for what you will. If anything just be careful. If not through the observations you seen with fox news and other media are not enough examples.

As if there wasn't enough scary things out there we have to scare ourselves also. :-)

I'm in nonway attempting warmongering here, or a proponent of violence. However history does repeat itself...A lot!

They are lost. This movement is almost over then we will have to wipe.
