    Google suppression is the more prolific cause of censorship, not the least in criticisms of large firms.

    They are in effect running a protection racket. If a company pays them to not show search results, they won’t show them. Ie, best buy’s now since 2021 defective electronics. The only hits on social media that are even close to what you are asking for, are forums run by the manufacturers that sold you the defective merchandise.

    There is no bottom to this path we are on.

      That’s not how it works. You can’t pay Google to suppress links. You can only file DMCA take downs iirc. Please send me the link where I can go pay Google to remove information. I’ll wait.
