You may be right sir. This is January 6th, the darkest day in human history, CNN reported. It seems anything is possible today.

Google Services (includes search and Youtube ads) increased revenue by 14% in Q3. We will have to watch Q4 earnings that will be released on February 3. Even if Google's revenue drops 10%, it won't matter to most publishers who are struggling to pay their electric bill. The end game is not just money for Google, but control. Once Google wipes everyone out, they are free to be the sole source for just about anything. That means Google can publish whatever fairy tales they want, like the book/movie 1984, and many people will believe it.

And people won't visit Google - they will just go away to other platforms, which they are starting to do now, and so will advertisors - Google will go away too into bankruptcy. Imagine the Karma of destroying all these people's liveihoods? Even the employees of Google are part of humanities destruction of the internet.

Helga commented on Google December 2025 Core Update Done Rolling Out

Thank you dear and Happy New Year! That was so kind of you. I made some phone calls based on this information. The Google customer service employees do not seem to have Mr. Pichai's direct phone number. I will talk to my grandson Robert and see if he knows how I might be able to call Mr. Pichai's parents so I can inform them of their son's harmful business practices.

First, it’s going to hit full-time webmasters... Then it’s going to hit part-time webmasters, and the ripple effect will impact all hosting and other website tool companies, big or small... In the end, only Google will remain after scraping all the website data... ///

Spamdar is probably consulting Trump and told him that using the military to take Greenland by force would be almost as easy as it was for Google to steal our content.

But what's the point when they are not earning money via advertising as they pulled budgets due to AI bidding they can't control? And they are getting little sales and google can't show ROI. I don't get the end game here. Finish website businesses just does not make commercial sense.

Trump is an unhinged lunatic. Now he's talking about using the US military to take Greenland for national security reasons. <b>Trump weighs using U.S. military to acquire Greenland: White House</b> <blockquote>President Donald Trump and his team are considering “a range of options” in order to acquire Greenland, including “utilizing the U.S. Military,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told CNBC on Tuesday. The statement further escalates the Trump administration’s rhetoric about Greenland, which the president has long sought to make a part of the United States.</blockquote>Full story: <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2026/01/06/trump-greenland-military-white-house.html">https://www.cnbc.com/2026/01/06/trump-greenland-military-white-house.html</a>

Unfortunately, when the mid-terms come, the power switches to the Dems and they'll be just as useless given Schumers track record. Doesn't matter who you choose, its game over either way.

With three full years left of Trump's term, I expect big techies to keep on trucking with destroying the web because they own Trump. Once the ballroom is built, Trump can pack the house for big techie fundraisers and non-stop games of Trump Twister. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/eb7753357804ff6f7ba2ecb2b4c839cf2a6fa174981ca73d5e134dd88edf1546.jpg

92 year old Judge Alvin Hellerstein is hearing the Maduro case. Hopefully he installs some fresh batteries in his hearing aids so he can really hear what's going on. Government needs age limits for certain.

Because that's how it was, it decreased in the morning. It was low during the day, increased in the evening. But the flow is not good, it jumps a lot. You never know what the next day will be like, no stability. Overall - last week was good, starting today it's getting worse.

Google will finish off all of you who put your heart and soul into your sites. All that will remain are sites with excellent user experiences, but are so sterile and boring that no one wants to go in and read them, not even their owners.

I am seeing a big drop in impressions and no changes in rankings today. Could be just a delay in reporting? Who knows, who cares. I just saw our numbers for December. That is supposed to be our 2nd best month. That's 10x less than our worst month maybe 3 years ago. It's done
