Google and Bing Censoring Firearms Related Terms From Shopping Results

in #censorship7 years ago (edited)

They have taken the censorship to another level, now many firearms related terms have been purged from the "Shopping" tab on Google and the "Shop" tab on Bing. I have included screen shots of some examples, including one that shows what used to be the typical results.

But it gets even better, when I tried any of the following terms earlier at work today, under the "Shopping/Shop" tabs:

Caulk Gun

Stun Gun

Paint Gun

Glue Gun

Nerf Gun

Staple Gun

Etc.

They returned no results also at the time, likely because of the presence of the word "gun". But these seem to be back to normal now, they must have adjusted.

But with the recent purges on Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, etc, this is just one more attack from the tolerant, inclusive folks who like to force their way of life on others.

Not sure what to make of it really, and I avoid Google/Bing/Twitter/Facebook and the like and have for years now. I guess it's annoying but laughable, like a little kid throwing a tantrum because they didn't get their way.

Edit to add more results:

So I ran some more searches in google under the "Shopping" tab and will post the results below. Censorship and a full on anti gun agenda is here, the masks of the would be tyrants are coming off.
