WOW, talk about purchasing a website for pennies. According to this Hollywood Reporter piece, conservative website PJ Media was acquired for a measly 100K. What a steal, PJ Media gets approximately 13 Million visitors a month according to Similarweb. There has to be more to this story, websites this big don’t sell for such a small price.

WordPress, a dominant website building platform that is used by approximate 33% of the web took a massive step backward with the release of Gutenberg. Billed as a new page and post-building experience that makes writing posts effortless has been a complete failure. One reviewer claimed it was the worst release since Windows 98.

In case you didn’t know the SSL certificate is a scam.
I’m sure most of you have noticed the annoying message you get when you visit an unsecured website. It’s basically saying, “Warning, this site is dangerous, and you shouldn’t view this page until this website purchases an SSL certificate,” aka they need to pay their extortion tax.

Privacy is a hot-button issue nowadays, and it should be. Information bloodsuckers like Facebook and Google are having a heyday selling your browsing habits to the highest bidder day in and day out. The truth is that’s really how these companies make their money. In case you didn’t know, as soon as you connect to the internet and visit your favorite site you’re virtually getting raped by hundreds of corporate vampires who want to suck every last bit of personal information out of you.

The war on truth has reached a fever pitch as Google has made it their mission to annihilate the independent media. The ‘New Media’ lead by the likes of Infowars, Breitbart, Natural News and many other great independent sites will have an uphill battle when it comes to getting their content in front of readers. Google has announced they will be doubling down on their ‘Orwellian’ practice of making stories disappear from their monopolistic search engine. Outlined in their Gestapo like 160-page handbook, Google describes exactly how they plan to suppress any information they deem unfit for readers. Highlighted at the bottom of page 108 Google states:
● Pages that directly contradict well established
scientific or medical consensus for queries seeking scientific or
medical information, unless the query indicates the user is seeking an alternative viewpoint.
● Pages that directly contradict well-established
historical facts (e.g., unsubstantiated conspiracy theories), unless
the query clearly indicates the user is seeking an alternative viewpoint.
These two guidelines provided by Google should set off alarm bells to anyone who has a thirst for knowledge or anyone that has the audacity to examine both sides of a topic. Imagine only being able to see and hear the corporate narrative on such important issues like vaccines, 9/11, holistic health, the Kennedy assassination, climate change, banking alternatives, and many other important matters. And that is only scratching the surface.
This information from Google’s handbook was first uncovered by Melissa Dykes at Truth Stream Media who made a great video that eloquently breaks down the importance of this complex issue. I highly recommend everyone watch it and more importantly support their work.
As bad as this news sounds there is a bright side. We have solutions people; we just have to break the habit of being slaves to the Google regime. First, we can stop using Google altogether and start using some great alternatives out there like Good Gopher, DuckDuckGo, Yandex, Searx.me and Qwant.com The second and most important thing we can do is go old school and start bookmarking sites again (something I have been doing for years). This will cut out the middle man (Google) and enable you to see all the great information from thousands of independent journalists that Google is trying to suppress.
Below you will find a comprehensive list of great sites broken down by category that do an excellent job in their respective field. I urge everyone to bookmark this page and make it their go to when searching for news on politics, health and prepping.
By no means is this list complete, there are thousands of great independent sites out there that I have inadvertently missed. If your favorite site is missing send me an email at tdishaw@protonmail.com and I will happily add it to the list if it’s worthy.

Sick and tired of Google? So am I. What once started out as a portal to your favorite websites has turned into an out of control spy machine that even George Orwell couldn’t have envisioned. Or maybe that was the plan all along. Over the last few months, Google’s been under intense scrutiny from pundits on the right and left over their increasingly dangerous practices, whether it be their skewed search results that seem to target Conservatives or their intentional demonetization of right leaning websites through their AdSense program. Google has shown us their true colors. They hate the right, but more importantly, they hate free speech.
The statistics are alarming. Google has a stranglehold on search, controlling 81% of the market. With such dominance, we could easily label Google a monopoly. Unfortunately, even with that label, nothing would change. Washington is just the policy arm of big business and would never say no to Google’s endless supply of cash that seems to flood the streets of D.C.
Over the years I’ve learned the only way we can institute change on a large scale is to economically punish companies who refuse to play fair. We can wait for Washington, hold protests and demonstrations, make YouTube videos, write a million stories, and it still won’t change a damn thing. The only way we can get a company’s attention is to stop using their product. It’s that simple, but if you’re unwilling to change your daily habit of using Google, they will win. It’s time for people who care about truth and freedom to put their money where their mouth is and stop using Google.
We the consumers are always in control, we dictate the market, but unfortunately, we get lazy and complacent because it’s human nature. Now is the time to stop being lazy and show Google we have woken up. Below are four search engines worthy of bookmarks that you should start using immediately.
DuckDuckGo is by far the most famous of the bunch. According to the latest Similarweb statistics, over 191 million people visited their search engine over the last 30 days. DuckDuckGo doesn’t store your personal information, they don’t follow you around with ads, and they promise never to track you. They also publish an interesting blog full of great privacy tips everyone can use.
Qwant is another popular noninvasive search engine that protects your privacy. They don’t use any cookies or sneaky methods that allow them to track your browsing habits or establish your profile. Unlike Google, Qwant ensures your privacy is protected, as this the cornerstone of their philosophy.
Searx is another up and coming Google alternative that cares about your privacy. They don’t generate personal profiles about their users, they never share anything with third parties and actually care about your digital freedom.
Good Gopher is a search engine specifically designed for the independent media. Developed by Mike Adams of Natural News this Google alternative doesn’t steal your personal information and values your privacy and freedom.
