#Disenshittify, NOW!! We have a chance: #IP!!

"…thanks to internal memos published during last year's #monopoly trial against #Google, we know what they did. They made #search worse. They reduced the system's accuracy it so you had to search twice or more to get to the answer, thus doubling the number of queries, and doubling the number of #ads.

Meanwhile, Google entered into a secret, illegal collusive arrangement with #Facebook, codenamed #JediBlue, to rig the ad market, fixing prices so advertisers paid more and publishers got less." @pluralistic

Un contrat de collusion nommé « Jedi Blue » (entre Google et Facebook) est enfin rendu public : il inclut explicitement une clause de résiliation si jamais « la justice prenait connaissance du contrat ».

Effectivement Bruxelles l'a appris et enquête

(Dans un monde normal, signer un tel contrat qu'on sait illégal enverrait les personnes impliquées en prison.)
