LOUIE: Google’s Immunity Must Be Stripped To Allow Class-Action Lawsuits

Texas Republican congressman Louie Gohmert, a Freedom Caucus stalwart, said that Google must have its immunity against class-action lawsuits stripped following Project Veritas’ expose of the tech giant’s political bias against President Donald Trump’s supporters and information that could help Trump win the 2020 election. Anti-trust suits are already forming ahead of an anti-Google coalition’s meeting with the Trump Department of Justice. Republican Senator Josh Hawley is launching a concerted effort to get rid of Google and Facebook’s Section 230 protections which they gained all the way back in 1996.
“This video shows Google’s biases are now a threat to a free and fair election, all while they hide behind the immunity given by Congress years ago when they were supposed to be a simple ‘town square’ where everyone’s voice could be heard without biased results,” Gohmert stated.
“In fact, Google references a significant role they see themselves fulfilling in the 2020 elections. This discovery should set off alarm bells throughout the country. It is no secret that Google has a political agenda. Multiple brave tech insiders have stepped forward and exposed Google’s censorship of content and specialized algorithms. This media giant’s ‘social justice narrative’ should distress all Americans who value a free and open society. Google should not be deciding whether content is important or trivial and they most assuredly should not be meddling in our election process. They need their immunity stripped and to be properly pursued by class action lawsuits by those they have knowingly harmed,” Gohmert said.
BLP reported: Investigative journalist James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas has released hidden camera videos showing a Google executive explaining how preventing Trump and similar leaders is at the top of the monolithic corporation’s list of priorities.
“Elizabeth Warren is saying we should break up Google. And like, I love her but she’s very misguided, like that will not make it better it will make it worse, because all these smaller companies who don’t have the same resources that we do will be charged with preventing the next Trump situation, it’s like a small company cannot do that,” said Jen Gennai, who works as Google’s Head of Responsible Innovation.
Project Veritas notes that Gennai is in charge of the division of Google that is responsible for implementing Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies. This includes making sure that political outcomes unfavorable for liberals cannot be reached.
“We all got screwed over in 2016, again it wasn’t just us, it was, the people got screwed over, the news media got screwed over, like, everybody got screwed over so we’re rapidly been like, what happened there and how do we prevent it from happening again,” Gennai added.
“We’re also training our algorithms, like, if 2016 happened again, would we have, would the outcome be different?” she asked.
Gennai is proud of her organization’s push for thought control, and the “Machine Learning Fairness” guidelines that have been introduced following Donald Trump’s presidential victory over Hillary Clinton in 2016.
“The reason we launched our A.I. principles is because people were not putting that line in the sand, that they were not saying what’s fair and what’s equitable so we’re like, well we are a big company, we’re going to say it,” Gennai said.
The Project Veritas story also includes testimony and leaks from Google insiders documenting how the Big Tech corporation is working to fix the problem of “algorithmic unfairness,” which means thought control to stifle access to ideas that are not politically correct. Another euphemism they use is “unconscious bias” to justify their Orwellian machinations. Their censorship practices also apply to YouTube as well.
