Summary: The channel "Russia Today" is misled or misleads with an AstroTurf entity called "Consumer Watchdog", which is only about attacking Google's business
THIS post is another quick update about the AstroTurfing group known as "Consumer Watchdog". The thing about this post is, it's not about defending Google but about defending the integrity of a decent news network, which has people misled by hired guns like 'Consumer' 'Watchdog' [1, 2, 3, 4, 5].

Whenever someone mentions "Consumer Watchdog", that someone ought to be made familiar with the facts. "Consumer Watchdog" is directly connected to Grassroots Enterprise (both reverse/invert the name of the practice they actually engage in), which is a massive AstroTurfing body that ought to be banned/disbanded. Regarding Google's attitude towards privacy, openuniverse says about Google's CEO Eric Schmidt: 'I thought his stance on privacy could be summed up "give, up! roll over."' ⬆
Yesterday we read that it was quite cruel how IBM (or Red Hat) compelled staff to pretend to be happily leaving or "retiring" when the reality was, they had been pushed out with some "package"
If patent law had been applied to novels in the 1880s, great books would not have been written. If the EU applies it to software, every computer user will be restricted, says Richard Stallman
So the real extent of layoffs is greater than what's publicly stated (there are silent layoffs) [...] Whatever IBM says about the scope, scale, or magnitude of the "RAs", it doesn't tell the full story
This is a real problem and most certainly a big problem because when people try to find real information about security and GNU/Linux they instead read "word salads" made by bots
