"The American people are subject to both overt censorship and covert manipulation" by big tech - Sen. @tedcruz at the Google hearing.

Democrat Sen. Hirono now claiming that big tech bias doesn't exist, as she has done at every other hearing on this issue.

Sen. Hirono now accuses @scrowder of a "two year homophobic harassment campaign" against a Vox reporter, complains that YouTube should have removed him completely from the platform instead of merely demonetizing him.

Hirono's line on big tech is always the same: "big tech censorship never happened, but it should happen some more!"

Google representative Karan Bhatia is speaking.

He listed a bunch of establishment conservative things he's been a part of. Cool!

Also, here's leaked audio of a senior director at Google discussing efforts to make conservatives repeat its talking points

Sen. @tedcruz just pulled out a copy of The Good Censor, a document admitting it has "shifted towards censorship."

Google rep admits the company produced the doc!

I originally obtained and published the document here, where you can read it in full:

Cruz is zeroing in on the part of The Good Censor that suggests Google has shifted towards the role of "editor" and "publisher" and away from "unmediated marketplaces of ideas.

Sen. @MarshaBlackburn dropping bombs on Google. 🔥

Calling them out on caving in to far-left radicals Kay Coles James, on internal efforts to demonetize @BreitbartNews, on search blacklists (which Google denies - lying to the senate??)

Guys you'll NEVER GUESS what one of the "expert" witnesses on the committee said about the Free Market and tech companies just now.

It's a truly radical, original opinion that you definitely haven't been hearing every day in DC since 1979.

Hearing on Google censorship ends with @DrREpstein discussing his findings, which should terrify any American who cares about democracy - that Google may have shifted approx 2.6 to 10.4 million votes in 2016.

Scary stuff!
