Would you like Google to censor the internet by making "petition to stop internet censorship" the first result?

Weird, I got Nickleback, shark finning, Nickleback from playing, and Dolphin slaughter, which is weird as I am nowhere near the ocean.

Might have something to do with the fact that you're a giant squid

Actually, everyone's google search results are different. There was a video about this on here recently.

I hate that. How do I kill the knowledge file of Big G?

Sign out of a google id for one. Done. That didn't change anything.

I got this as well, and I'm in southern Ontario. Haven't heard a Nickelback song in years, so I guess nothing on that list applies to me at all.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Heh. Nickelback first, 2. petition to stop bryce lawrence ever reffing a rugby game again, 3. petition to stop sb 48.

[–]Tyrien 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Me too.

It's even stranger because I hate sharks. I'm sure google has this listed, somewhere.

[–]JackassPenguinass 0 points1 point ago

You town is filled with eco-conservationist and people who hate Nickleback.

[–]lesssthanthree 0 points1 point ago

I got petition to stop ~

  • sb 48
  • ab 131
  • dream act

  • and then this page and the linked image page

I've never looked these things up, except the reddit.
So I will now:

re: sB48
When he signed SB 48 into law this past July, Governor Jerry Brown rationalized his actions with the claim that “History must be honest.” But the bill he signed specifically required an incomplete and inaccurate presentation in all social science classes in our public schools.

Senate Bill 48 required curriculum that is positive toward lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and other minority figures. But it also prohibited curriculum that reflects adversely on the same groups. The Los Angeles Times condemned the new law by noting, “Real history is richer and more complicated than feel-good depictions.”
Capitol Resource Family Impact along with other pro-family individuals and organizations remain committed to the goal of reversing SB 48, California’s so-called “gay history” bill. Today, a broad coalition of sponsors filed an initiative with the California Attorney General designed to reverse the overreaching aspects of that legislation.
tl;dr; The slogan at the top of the page: "It costs too much. It goes too far."

re ab131
It's the "stop the dream act" petition.
The dream act allows illegal immigrants school aid like other folks.

Obviously I live in Cali and the big G knows it.
Thanks for suggesting looking.

I think I laughed way too hard at this. It pretty much made my day. Even more so when I went to google and got the same results.

Nope, Chuck Testa ...is more of a threat than those idiots. It has to be Nickleback.

I would like to know how a petition would stop bullying? What, would the bullies be like "Oh damn, this petition passed, guess I can't bully anymore." Or maybe the teacher just has to punch all the bullies in the face.

[–]homeyG75 11 points12 points ago

  • petition to stop child support

[–]ForgotMyPants 0 points1 point ago

Since Google takes your search history into account, do you have anything in your iTunes closet you want to fess up to :-)

[–]Sc2sahib 1 point2 points ago

What I want to know is, which one were you searching for?

[–]GrayFeathers[S] 2 points3 points ago

SOPA, actually.

Does everyone forget that Google is now a statistically significant representation of our society's interest? I wish I didn't think of this just now... :(

I KNEW there was something I liked about you Google. You'll go far kid, you'll go far.

[–]TheBishop7 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I like to think that if we could just stop Nickleback, then we wouldn't need those other petitions. We could all just live in peace.

[–]dissdigg 4 points5 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Sad thing is that's more based on internet users' popularity. Google's just doing what's expected.

[–]j85s13 1 point2 points ago

I got the same thing as the picture.

Google has a complex algorithm that determine what the suggested results are.

[–]sebzim4500 0 points1 point ago

I don't understand why people search for "Petition to stop bullying".

[–]WhereIsMyHat 0 points1 point ago

Detroit Lions fans wanted a band or artist from michigan to play during the half time show on thanksgiving, but nickleback was signed up to play, so they started an ultimately fruitless Internet petition.

they say google offers its suggestions based on your search history. So whatever you get is what you're into

[–]lesssthanthree 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

That's a closed circle. Must be why I dont use suggestions.

If there's one thing we know about bullies, it's that they respond well to online petitions.

While internet censorship should be up there, Nickelback is a serious problem, causing thousands of people to go deaf every year.

And making Detroit Lions fans suffer in the one year their team is actually any good. I honestly think Ndamukong Suh's stomping at the Thanksgiving day game was just a delayed reaction to having to listen to their halftime show.

While part of me says that internet censorship should be on the top, it's fucking nickleback.

[–]genwhy 1 point2 points ago

So part of you is fucking nickleback while talking about internet censorship?

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points ago

In all fairness, Nickelback is pretty bad.
