I totally concur with what you are saying, everyone who can do anything is too corrupt by money (Democrats) or too scared of Trumpty (Republican) That PAC who are going after NY Senator is scarey. All the PAC has to do is find or bribe his opponent and have unlimited cash to promote. The PAC man, lol or woman will avoid talking about AI or talk it up. They say the important thing is the Economy but AI is the greatest threat to the economy but if you don't know, you've not been paying attention. PAC man will sell his soul for election

"But is GEO a fad?" Until and unless we have evidence that it's not a bubble, it's as much a fad as voice search was a few years ago.

Squidward Tortellini commented on Google's Thanksgiving 2025 Doodle Goes To An AI Mode

Yeah it's unfortunate that the google doodle doesn't explain tiny chef alongside providing the recipes after you click on it. Feels like theyre giving half-assed props to cheffy. There is a nice (albiet extremely brief) explainer on the google doodle site for today's doodle, but I only found it after being curious as to why the doodle would include him but then not explain who he is or anything.

Ahhh. Someone who has never helped a plumber rank is making fun of things he knows very little about. The cycle of Google continues.

One must ask where's the tax on Google and other tech companies destroying these jobs with their technology? Also, why are these companies still getting subsidized when they are the ones responsible for causing widespread economic harm? Who will fund all levels of government when these job losses rise and income taxes fall? A real lack of AI policy in the US leaves me with many questions. We're winning the AI race for sure - the race to the bottom. <b>MIT study finds AI can already replace 11.7% of U.S. workforce</b> <blockquote>Massachusetts Institute of Technology on Wednesday released a study that found that artificial intelligence can already replace 11.7% of the U.S. labor market, or as much as $1.2 trillion in wages across finance, health care and professional services.</blockquote>Full story: <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/11/26/mit-study-finds-ai-can-already-replace-11point7percent-of-us-workforce.html">https://www.cnbc.com/2025/11/26/mit-study-finds-ai-can-already-replace-11point7percent-of-us-workforce.html</a>

Google Ads Experts are under pressure to increase advertiser spending. I'm sure, if given the chance, many of these so called experts would help bad actors gain access to these accounts. Google itself doesn't care much because they're making money too and what recourse do advertisers have? Go to arbitration or file a lawsuit? This is just another example of why Google having too much control over the internet is bad for everyone else.

Haha the last part of that album cover definitely hits Scumdar close to home too. Yeah, Indian Poop Technocracy needs to be the official term for their BS.

LOL Indian Poop Technocracy. So many creative ways to describe Spamdar's leadership. Title of this album describes what almost happened when I saw that. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/d26bc7edd510cc8f4073b0ea8953e5ac345d063920a1092494504a4830244bab.png

This happened because they hacker stole his logged in session token (cookie). The phishing email you showed seems to be the real culprit, as the hackers can somehow steal their session token to bypass 2-step verification in addition to their credentials. It happened to Linus Tech Tips YouTube channel about a year ago: <a href="https://youtu.be/yGXaAWbzl5A?si=TGqdJAniy9U4wkwm">https://youtu.be/yGXaAWbzl5A?si=TGqdJAniy9U4wkwm</a>

And how did they just force accounts to use ACH. Great. No protection from the immediate monetary damage or increased level of theft protection. It’s definitely a future lawsuit for those impacted.

Looks like this was really never solved, this past week lots of businesses have lost many reviews which is unusual and google is just quiet do they even care? https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/28933a67de763df6cd185b43241b42e09582055046f437965dc8e93f636bc51d.png https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9016a15fe253667c12fa0e645f3e5bbd9007d4c883afd5e17e37a555ff7a4f42.png

Hans Lacida US Ads Strategist commented on Google Local Service Ads Testing Removing More Results Button

Google pushing LSAs into an 8 pack tightens visibility and increases pressure on ranking signals. My take as a Google Ads PPC expert is to track appearance rates in this layout and boost reviews, responsiveness, and proximity because if this rolls out only top profiles will hold placement. Then again this looks limited to selected accounts, so Google is still testing before a wider push.

Hans Lacida US Ads Strategist commented on Google Ads In AI Mode Results

Good to see AI Mode improve because it keeps paid visibility strong, and as a Google Ads director this is something I will add to my A B tests. I assume this rollout is still a beta or limited to selected accounts, so tight intent and clean structures matter even more.

Hans Lacida US Ads Strategist commented on Google Ads Account Hijacks

These MCC hijacks are getting too precise, so phishing is likely but I would not rule out an insider angle in some cases. Nothing confirmed, just a theory based on the patterns. Best move is tight access control and daily audits.

There's no low Google won't sink to. That's the one benefit of being run by a shitdemon CEO with no soul. And just when you think this scumbag company can't get any lower, Google outdoes itself with now protecting pedophiles by trying to deplatform a major YouTube channel dedicated to catching child predators. <a href="https://x.com/iFightForKids/status/1992692769094242494">https://x.com/iFightForKids/status/1992692769094242494</a>

That's spot on with how Google can now control the narrative through much of the media that's dependent on them. Google is truly a cancer that has metastasized into nearly every aspect of society to control all information. There's no mainstream online platform these thieves don't have their slimy gerbilpox-ridden hands on in one way or another. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/936dfc9cb3e0bb0d3ad8e2304f8a3ed1e856d231670f4260845c3a0d4da1b272.png

Google has entered into contracts with various media outlets who are now dependent on Google for their survival. The next phase of these contracts may be Google pre-approving the stories these media companies post so that Google can control reality and hide crimes like this that they profit from. Right from the movie 1984.

Rowan commented on Google Ads Account Hijacks

I don’t know how to say this without sounding racist or offending anyone. So I apologise in advance if I do offend anyone here. I have friends who worked in a bank, and their company have a huge number of foreign workers from a particular country. And, guess what? This same bank had many incidents of customers’ information being leaked. Even my friend who owns a credit card from the same bank he worked at had his data compromised, despite he has NEVER used it for any purchases before. They believe it is those foreign workers in the bank selling customers’ data out, or, through careless ways, allowing hackers to access their terminal to get all the sensitive details. What’s funny is my friend had replaced his card, and just a few months later, the new card was compromised AGAIN. And we all know Pichai decided to retrench many workers, while outsourcing and hiring more in his homeland. I wouldn’t be surprised if the data was leaked as a result of negligence or through some syndicates bribing the workers to leak the data.

Imagine how these crimes will get swept under the rug when Google has gained full control of the internet. By not fully refunding, Google is profiting from criminal conduct. This is to be expected from the Google Crime Syndicate which has earned multiple convictions for economic crimes.

DataDonkey commented on OpenAI Introduces Shopping Research Assistant In ChatGPT

Imagine how this AI shit will impact sellers when their returns skyrocket. AI is too stupid to pass details along to shoppers that they need to make informed decisions. How can we detect these types of transactions (user agent, etc.) or should we just roll out another Priceifier Update to pass the cost onto consumers before hitting them with restocking fees?

LOL You may be onto something. It may be one of Google's offshore reps who helped criminals gain access to the ad accounts. Nobody affiliated with the Google Crime Syndicate can be trusted.
