THE TRUTH ABOUT SMALL BUSINESS INTERNET OR DIGITAL MARKETING!!!

 

If you want to start a small business then an internet website is a necessity. The internet is changing rapidly and website rules of the past no longer apply. Many humans are switching from computers to cellphones exclusively and phone apps are now the accepted format to gain a noticeable and viable presence on cellphones.

 

Search engine optimization or SEO on Google changes constantly and the richest websites bid for keyword priority so your chances of being found or being a priority on Google with a new website are miniscule.

 

Emails as a way of communicating with customers is riddled with problems with scam emails making up about 90% of all emails. Each email and comments nowadays have to be filtered or put in moderation so that nefarious individuals or trolls can’t damage your reputation with shitty or malicious comments.

 

Most businesses have to change the information on their websites from time to time so that updates have to be made by professionals who know what they are doing. Web design by professionals is a must but so is the maintenance of the website. Gone are the days when you could manage your website information on your own with minimal knowledge.

 

You have to have a presence on social media but Facebook is no longer a good place to advertise since big money websites have priority and most of your ad money will be wasted. With Google and Facebook catering to big money a new poorly financed website is a drop in the bucket for them and that means that you are very low or non existent on their priority list.

 

Let’s take Chipolte the Mexican Grill restaurant as an example of what the rich big boys are doing on the web. Chipolte has an excellent website where the hours, map, telephone and menu are posted in a readily viewed format. It has an app where you can order online and with sufficient volume of customers they may even in the near future provide almost free delivery of their food since this is a modern trend to send products to your address. You can order online and pick up your order in person with no wait time.

 

Chipolte has a huge presence on the web where other websites like Google, Facebook, Pinterest, Yelp, YouTube, Twitter, etc. have links to the Chipolte website or information about it. Try to create a website with all these great features and you will wind up paying an arm and a leg for web design and maintenance on a small customer volume of a new business. Customers are expecting all the services which big business can provide and if you are a small business first starting out, the expense of providing this great service and customer interaction is prohibitive and you may be doomed to live in obscurity on the web almost forever unless you start out with great word of mouth advertising from the beginning.

 

The overwhelming modern trend is to order online and have the product, information, or service delivered to your home. Fail at making this a seamless process a reality and you risk great failure and depletion of your capital resources.

 

Physical location location and a good product, information, or service was the key to new small business success in the good old days. Today location location on the web is just as important a priority for your venture capital. Oh, so far I have omitted the great importance of a unique appealing brand identity which you should have to seriously consider before you launch a small business.

 

If all the above information seems discouraging to someone on a shoestring budget then that was my aim. As always you need much money to start a realistic small business and if you have not saved up enough money and acquired enough useful knowledge to make it for the first five years or more then you should not even start on the road to business entrepreneurship. That is the tough truth about small business internet or digital marketing.

THE INTERNET AND PRIVACY!!!

The internet by definition can’t ensure absolute privacy. Since communication is sending a signal from point A anywhere on the earth to point B, C, D, etc. it is possible to intercept the signal between two points or at the points themselves and decode the signal whether encrypted or not. So no absolute privacy is possible although there are degrees of privacy possible depending on the type of signal such as a pulsed and encoded signal with a high degree of privacy, an encoded or smooth uninterrupted signal with some privacy possible, and a standard signal with minimum privacy such as a passworded signal.

So if you want almost absolute communication privacy then don’t use the internet.

Constitutionally in the United States your right to privacy can only be overridden with a warrant authorized by a judge so unless it is a bot judge or a real judge the ultimate question is-is the judge ideologically unbiased, moral and not an immoral, severely biased, or criminal one?

In the age of international communication a serious question to ask is are the humans in charge of the internet moral or immoral judges, bots, or humans? In the case of communications between China and the United States the morality of the Chinese judges (communist party members) with a potential to be enemies in the future comes into question as well as the judges in the United States if they have a left or right wing ideology to promote or a financial interest to promote.

Thus the question of internet privacy ultimately covers the importance of the ideology and morality of those in control of the internet. If the internet is controlled by the immoral and ideological biased humans then you may have to live in constant fear of financial or societal destruction if you are not ideologically pure and have much money and property to lose. So a just commonly held ideology or constitution and commonly held morality or set of commonly held ethical principles is vital to the just functioning of the world of the internet.

It is not surprising that the Russian tyranny may be considering to cut itself off the internet entirely so it can keep its citizens in line without the potential for revolting.

THE INTERNET HAS DESTROYED THE MASS PROPAGANDA PRESS OR MEDIA!!!

The media no longer has a mass captive audience willing to spend a half an hour or an hour of their time on the same publication or media device because they are used to instant gratification and have short attention spans. Unless you have been taught to love reading, reading is a rather tedious task and verbosity has been and still is a fault of both writers and video commentators. In a word- boring.

Desperate to try and maintain readership the press has become a tabloid press with emotional  sensationalism, much biased opinion, and quite a bit of fake or untrue information heavily laced with a globalist ideology and what apparently passes for political correctness. Humans frankly no longer trust what they read, hear, or see so there is a credibility crisis in the elite press or media.

Many prefer to spend time on social media with friends, playing games, and often use search engines or keywords to find information which they are interested in at the moment. So brainwashing via mass media is no longer possible and humans are retreating into their own worlds on the internet.

Conclusion: Mass media is just as good as dead and the internet has killed it.

BIG MONEY, ECONOMICS, THE INTERNET, AND IDEOLOGY!!!

Big money is increasingly ruling the world internationally with international banks,  international corporations, and international internet or communications beginning to have more impact on the lives of humans than any one country or national organization. In almost every country this globalized money supply is impacting the political leadership of almost every country and a global ideology is beginning to form which is much more collective and tyrannical in nature.  Individual rights are being assaulted with more of an emphasis on group rights and group think or group ideology.  Putting it another way it is collective rights and collective thinking or collective ideology which is becoming more dominant.

Ironically in its beginning the internet held a promise of individual freedom of expression and individual creativity. With time, money and information power became concentrated in search engines, social media, cellphone companies, and internet commerce all of which now dominate the internet with relatively few corporations being major players and all being able to crush or buy up competitors to increase their profit margin which favors established monied companies which includes monied media companies. Discrimination based on money is rampant but more sinister is the ability to promote collective left wing ideology and censor right wing ideology which still promotes individual rights. It is beginning to look like the tyranny of big money power is being fused with the tyranny of thought control or censorship of politically incorrect thought which champions individual rights and moral or ethical individual free speech.

Economics is now largely a global phenomenon with international trade promoting the rich in every country and more power in the hands of the globally rich. Technology is also increasing the concentration of this money in the hands of the rich nationals and rich internationals but this would not be all bad if it weren’t for the fact that most of the rich have a tyrannical collectivist ideology which threatens to make most individuals little more than impoverished humans living on welfare or working for a pittance often not enough to support a family. This may be an effective form of population control but living an impoverished life seldom helps the culture of a nation to thrive.

Conclusion:

Money power is being concentrated in fewer and fewer hands worldwide, the individual is increasingly being oppressed financially and ideologically, and it becomes harder for one to climb the economic and social status ladder, especially if you start out at the poverty level. For all the members of the technologically educated and elite the future is bright but most jobs will be replaced by computer software and robots. A political and ideological revolution will be necessary to fit the new economic realities where most will not be technologically educated nor smart and ambitious enough so they will largely become dependent on some form of permanent government welfare.

HOW THE INTERNET IS CHANGING OUR LIVES!!!

When the internet began it was the days of the wild wild west where you could get all kinds of information for free which included books, music, movies, pictures, news, and blogs. You could comment almost anywhere and prowl the internet with fake ID’s and fake names. With the passage of time viruses, malware, Trojans, scams, spam, and bots started to take up more and more of the internet which has a flawed technology to begin with and no realistic foolproof vetting process.

Scam artists trying to make a quick buck invaded websites with self promoting info and promises of instant wealth. This quickly degraded the websites and caused a lot of dissatisfaction among the idealistic righteous few who erroneously thought that free participation would not lead to an overabundance of web human parasites out to make a quick buck.

In a period of about 7 years starting in 2012 my blog site has had over a million and a half spam comments that Askimet protected me against. Anonymity was another major reason why trust in the internet has reached an all time low with pretentious humans and pretentious ripoff scams.

Along with this chaos cell phones with apps began to make their mark as more information was packaged into brief soundbites, captivating images, and inescapable ads. The computer screen with a nice keyboard was being replaced by a mini screen with fingertip touch composing of messages and images.

Isolating customers from the worldwide web with easy access was done with cell phones with more and more internet companies limiting your potential experiences to selected apps and interests designed to appeal to your political persuasion and your topical interests. The cellphone was an information trap which most ventured into and limited your ability to choose new and better interests as you progressed through life. Siri and Alexa are just a few examples of big corporations filtering acceptable answers to questions posed by the public and putting blinders on to any divergent views or answers.

Today there are serious privacy issues and an emphasis on trustworthy websites. Censorship by social media and search engines is beginning to dominate and independent voices are gradually being suppressed. Much information now is no longer free and you are beginning to have to pay for almost any privilege on the internet such as publishing your articles on a website and viewing the published articles of others.

Only secure websites are being promoted and those are usually the ones making the most profit for themselves and the internet providers. Freedom of choice is drastically being limited and if you are a startup internet company then the chances that you will rapidly grow with millions of interested customers is highly improbable because you are a low human or enterprise on the priority list of most search engines.

Big money with profit as the primary focus is censoring all competitors who have minimal money for promotion purposes. Established companies are making a killing and competitors with a decent following are quickly bought up to avoid competition. If you are working on a shoestring budget with a novel and interesting new idea or business then chances are great that you will get minimal internet exposure with little growth opportunities.

The internet in its primal state was very democratic with potential worldwide exposure. Now the internet is mostly owned by big money interests and is rapidly decreasing in creativity and relevance to the creative community which is struggling to grow beyond a handful of loyal friends and supporters.

Relatively cheap and free information is quickly being changed into paid information and almost every website is trying to fund itself to keep alive and have some dubious presence on the money hungry internet.

The biggest tragedy is that monopolistic international information companies are beginning to censor minority political opinion in the name of an international globalist left wing ideology. Economic prosperity for the middle class is rapidly declining and most western nations are being threatened with a realistic third world status with a few rich at the top and the majority living at close to poverty level. It’s beginning to look a lot like a tyrannical ideological socialist or communist elite at the top and the rest mostly working slaves with minimal rights trying to stay economically afloat.

Yes, there are currently some populist rumblings against the globalist trend but I personally believe that the globalists with their great wealth will eventually triumph in the end and maintain their global world order based on money and a tyrannical ideology which will suppress most dissenters helped with a monopoly on media propaganda.

Maybe it is time to start a new internet where all the users are vetted as having good honest reputations with validated encrypted personal information. Good trustworthy websites with information from reputable vetted sources with no political ax to grind. Sounds like an impossible task but maybe someday such an internet will emerge. In an era of fake news, fake information, and fake reviews I think it is high time to try and reverse this unacceptable trend and enter an era of truthful news, truthful information, truthful reviews, and no ads unless you ask for them.

IS THERE A NON VIOLENT SOLUTION TO A CORRUPT COLLUDING ESTABLISHMENT LEADERSHIP?

It is tragic when money becomes the primary motivation and morality takes a back seat in an anything goes power struggle for dominance.

Top universities accept bribes or donations which predominate in many enrollment decisions and phony enhanced resumes are made for a fee by shady enterprises and then submitted by the children of wealthy parents to top universities.

A financially failing establishment media resorts to tabloid sensationalism to try and enhance their ratings and hopefully boost their bottom line.

The leadership of the deep state colludes with the media and justice department in a more than two year drawn out systematic investigation of Russian collusion by the president only to find out after spending millions of dollars of taxpayer’s money that there was no Russian collusion. During those more than two years it was trial by public media without any real evidence but a stated certitude of guilt by association and circumstantial dubious so called evidence.

Celebrities joined the media in the BS fest with profanities, ridicule, insults, put downs, name calling, humiliations, and merciless criticism. Promiscuity and female abuse and exploitation was and probably still is quite rampant and acceptable in the entertainment business.

Neither the Democratic nor the Republican party has any charismatic and morally sound candidates either in office or running for office. Since the establishment media is on a steep decline it is debatable whether any candidate will be able to work their way up to enough name recognition to challenge Trump with a somewhat notorious nationwide celebrity name recognition.

Big money tech firms and international and national corporations are showing an ideological left wing bias which is further evidence of international globalist collusion with monetary world domination as a goal.

There was and perhaps always has been a politicization of the Supreme Court and recently there are overt attempts at making ideology dominant over constitutional principles.

Opioid and drug abuse is killing more young adults than car accidents, ruining many lives, and marijuana stocks are the new business money craze.

No serious legislative attempts are made to solve illegal border crossings and fundamentally Congress is deadlocked and thus dysfunctional. Can cheap labor and future Democrats be the reason for the Congressional deadlock which goes back about 30 years?

I could go on and on bitching about the sorry state of affairs the United States is in and unfortunately the only solution is more transparency or public internet knowledge of governmental functions, government workers, and special interests which are humans, institutions, businesses, and foreign nations lobbying Congress and their relatives with sweetheart deals.

I left out the most important long duration solution to corruption and that is a fundamentally moral public. A secular moral code should be taught to all impressionable young elementary students so that they know what is right and what is wrong by the age of about 13 so they can be considered to be moral adults.

Knowing what is right or wrong, moral or immoral is a fundamental necessity for humans since the dawn of human cultural history and ethical or moral relativity is just not a good foundation for impulsively judging humans who comprise the vast majority of any national population. By the age of about 13 children should IMPULSIVELY know what is right or wrong from a moral and if you prefer an ethical viewpoint.

Believing in a secular moral or ethical code is a form of self government over one’s behaviors in society because forced morality from above is impossible to enforce if the public does not believe in it and has not been indoctrinated from early childhood. What is that secular moral code? I have offered my suggestion for one in my blog and book titled Secular Moral Code.

If interested the secular moral code is- in nonemergency situations-don’t destroy biodiversity, don’t lie, don’t be inefficient, don’t steal, don’t commit adultery if married, and don’t murder.

Religion is on the decline worldwide and has been the major repository of morality or advice on how to live peacefully with your fellow humans. Take away religion and a moral indoctrination and you have chaotic dysfunctional behavior in humans. Religious morality has some drawbacks because of all the mythology which is no longer believable in the modern world. But religious morality absolutely must be replaced with a secular morality which most can agree with and form a necessary consensus of opinion.

Join me in trying to make a secular morality popular among the movers and shakers of this world. More realistically try practicing this morality in your own and children’s lives. Of course you will need details so start searching my encyclopedic blog by keyword and if you are not interested in morality questions and answers then pick topics like parenting, relationships, marriage, dating, love, integrity, trustworthiness, honesty, truth, etc. Happy hunting!

BIG TECH SHARING PARANOIA!!!

Did you ever notice how hard it is to share posts with other tech sites like Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, Minds, etc.?

If you try to share a post chances are good that you will not be able to do so thanks to the new big tech censorship. I therefore predict that fewer and fewer humans will utilize big tech for their creative output and big tech will mostly become a wasteland of mediocrity. Fake information and fake news is probably the major factor in neutering the internet and the cause for the sharing paranoia.

First I couldn’t share my blog posts with Facebook, then Twitter, most of Reddit, and Quora also no longer posts to Facebook and Twitter. About the only big tech firms which still accept posts is Pinterest and I expect this to be discontinued in the near future.

Google is also censoring websites and web content via its encrypted format and sometimes it just posts a statement saying the website is not secure. Pretty soon I predict the internet will only be used by registered humans who have been vetted for honesty without a criminal record and new websites similarly will have to go through a universal vetting procedure to minimize fraud and other forms of criminality including political incorrectness. It will be the age of moral free speech and not any and all free speech which has decimated trust in the internet and its publications.

BIG MONEY AND THE PROBLEM WITH BIG IN GENERAL!!!

Big international banking is probably why the danger of  World War 3 is highly unlikely since the world is so economically interdependent and no major nation wants a physical war nor much less an all out cyber war designed to incapacitate a major economic nation in the world. Yes, if the total military system of a nation is neutralized or totally incapacitated with cyber attacks then blackmail is a distinct possibility but I doubt that it would lead to a physical world war. There is a war on to try and control your mind with socialist and communist propaganda internationally but this will take a few generations to achieve unless big internet tech is determined to make it happen sooner.

That said bigness in general has many drawbacks since monopoly or big business size has a tendency to corrupt an organizational structure and any products or information which it may choose to disseminate or sell to customers. Quality service, quality products, and quality information suffers whenever something gets too big.

The big food business or monoculture big agribusiness in general is largely producing cheap food and polluting and losing the topsoil which it is so heavily dependent on. The soil is being poisoned by artificial fertilizers, artificial pesticides and herbicides, questionable GMO’s, and the topsoil is decreasing with each passing year. Big factory farming is producing too many livestock with unnatural doses of antibiotics, hormones, and genetically modified livestock which no longer reproduce the natural way but do so only with artificial insemination.

Over processing of limited biodiverse produce and adding too much sugar, preservatives, color, and artificial chemicals is further degrading the quality of the food and drink. If the old adage that you are what you eat is true then the bad quality of limited fast food and food and drink in general is causing severe health problems for most of the humans in a nation.

Going organic is a smart move but when big corporations take over companies such as Whole Foods which was promising to go organic then organic food struggles. When Aldi supermarkets get too numerous they no longer have an incentive to sell organic produce at the accelerating rate which theoretically would be a good thing. Bigness frankly sucks. Bigness slows down organic innovation and decelerates the pace of needed change in the food and drink business towards higher quality or nutrient value.

Bad health has resulted in big medicine creating artificial drugs which treat the symptoms of an illness but don’t cure it guaranteeing permanent addicted customers. Just listen to the side effects of drugs advertised on TV. The side effects are worse than the symptoms and the possible consequences are the medical conditions which the drugs claim to obscure but not cure.

Over prescription of pain killers, opioids, mood enhancing drugs, anti psychotic drugs, antibiotics, and pills in general has made the majority of Americans dependent on medication of some kind and the number taking 5 or more pills is accelerating, especially among the elderly. Big medicine, high insurance, and medical malpractice suits are causing much disillusionment in the profession. Fewer and fewer humans are choosing  to enter the medical profession and fewer and fewer humans believe that doctors are trying to cure them but are just cynically considering them as a source for renewed prescriptions and income.

Big internet tech companies are the next great source for future lousy information and excessive censorship of ideas and news. Fake news and fake information has made the public lose trust in what they are getting from the media and internet tech companies. Almost all attempts at regaining this trust seem to be colossal failures. Once trust is lost it can take decades or lifetimes to get the trust back.

How do you censor moral free speech from fake and immoral free speech with an algorithm which is just to all law abiding humans? It is mission impossible and the only way out is to patronize smaller internet websites whose mission is clearly stated and worthwhile enough to be financially supported by a trusting readership.

Internet censorship is just one step away from a tyrannical big government with basically one party or two parties that have one and the same philosophy. Many have already complained that there is no difference in the Republican or the Democratic establishment parties. The rich get richer, the middle class is dying fast, the welfare class grows, and the average working citizen is being largely ignored by the politicians.

Many special interest laws have been passed with so many that Congress no longer can pass understandable plain English laws which mean what they say on paper. There are so many vague laws passed which rely upon the bureaucracy interpreting the laws and actually enforcing them via the legal system. Bureaucratic bias is rampant and small businesses who can’t afford an expensive lawyer to explain the laws are at a considerable disadvantage.

Big money power and bigness in general is oppressing the individual and any rights that he or she may still have by law in the constitution. Humans are being royally fucked by big money, a big economy, big medicine, big food or farming, big education, big information, and a big government system. It seems things will only get worse with the passage of time. If you are smart then you will patronize organic food, minimal medicine or minimal usage of drugs both legal and illegal, promote useful education, promote small businesses, and try to pass on your morality to your offspring if you decide to have any offspring.

The problem with big lifeforms is that they are usually too big, too slow, too inefficient, and too stupid to survive in the long duration once they have devoured all the medium sized and little lifeforms. Yes, decentralization is a possible alternative for bigness not becoming extinct but promoting small businesses is the ultimate antidote to a big or huge corrupted dying organism.

Globalism is a money tyranny trying to impose its will on the world and it is basically tyrannical in nature. Globalism has a tyrannical ideology which seeks to impose uniformity of obedient thought on the world and destroy any democracies in the process. Rumblings of nationalism have surfaced and is a weak rebellion against one ideological global tyranny. The European Union is not working out very well any more and without political unity there is little hope for long term continued economic unity.

It is true that if you control the money supply of the world then you really shouldn’t care what political system is running a nation but unfortunately big money leads inevitably to coercive tyrannical tactics and that ultimately means that all the nations of the world will eventually be led by tyrants.

WHY THE FREE INTERNET IS DYING FAST!!!

When the internet started out there was optimal freedom and it seems that you could even call it the days of the Wild Wild West. It seemed that anyone could join, create a website, and get lots of free information from it such as pictures, music, videos, and articles. Plagiarism was rampant and intellectual property was stolen on a regular basis.

Then the shit hit the fan and immoral behavior soon lead to unscrupulous malicious humans or hackers and bots infecting computers with malware, viruses, Trojans, pop up ads, and phishing scams. Today online scams continue along with an abundance of fake information, fake news, and much abusive language. Hackers invade business and government websites and get much customer information such as passwords, social security numbers, bank account numbers, and other relatively private information.

To try to exclude online criminals from stealing your information there are attempts at verifying valid users and using sophisticated encryption techniques to safeguard your information. Big tech is trying to censor the information that is available to you and doing so with algorithms which try to censor out “disreputable” users, websites, and those with radical or conservative political views.

Unfortunately computer algorithms are not good at censoring satire and comedy routines so many users are censored for no good reason whatsoever and there is often no ability to appeal the censorship and get your grievances redressed.

Money is the bottom line and many websites are now charging customers to use them or post articles. Information too is being sold and not given as freely. Marketing your information is becoming mission impossible unless you have a huge advertising budget. So the internet is favoring the rich and powerful organizations and if you are a creative individual composing useful information to publish, the chances are minimal that you will quickly get a boatload of interested followers or customers on the internet.

The internet is imprisoning individuals into small groups of mostly humans that you know and if you want to reach a wider audience then the odds are stacked against you. The rich and famous can get their message across but if you are a nobody starting off, you will probably not succeed in promoting your message to an audience larger than your immediate group of friends.

The truth is that to have a smoothly functioning internet you really have to admit moral humans and try to exclude the immoral or criminal types and no computer algorithm is capable of doing so reliably. The situation is so bad and distrust so great that information is no longer being shared across websites such as wordpress.com, minds.com, Facebook, and Reddit to some extent. Private website information seldom flows freely to other websites and search engines such as Google in the encrypted mode no longer post images originating from your private website.

It seems that Google no longer wants to trust you and your information if you are not rich and powerful. Major websites try to deplatform you if you are considered too controversial. If you are a website promoting free speech and expression then big money transfer organizations such as Paypal etc. will censor you and stop serving you. If you are rich and powerful then you get to the front of the line. If you have little money then it is almost guaranteed that you will be censored or discriminated against.

In principle the internet information that you get should be reliable and trustworthy. In reality that means that what you often get is fake news from rich establishment organizations and advertisements from rich companies with money clout. The internet is very poor at separating fact from fiction so just censorship with fair treatment for all is simply out of the question, especially if bots are doing the censorship.

An open source internet is quickly becoming a closed internet for the rich and powerful who are feeding you their propaganda whether you like it or not. A tyrannical internet is becoming a reality and not so much because of free speech running amok but because of fake speech and fake information trying to break into every nook and cranny of the internet. Will you be able to someday trust internet information? Not as long as internet bots do the censoring and the rich and powerful are given preferential treatment.

Solution? Patronize the websites which you consider trustworthy with your money and stay away from websites which try to screw you out of money or try to deceptively get your private information, as best you can.

If the old adage that you are what you eat is true then the bad quality of limited fast food and food and drink in general is causing severe health problems for most of the humans in a nation.

Going organic is a smart move but when big corporations take over companies such as Whole Foods which was promising to go organic and when Aldi supermarkets get too numerous they no longer have an incentive to sell organic produce at the accelerating rate that they should be sold, bigness sucks. Bigness slows down organic innovation and decelerates the pace of needed change in the food and drink business.

Bad health has resulted in big medicine creating artificial drugs which treat the symptoms of an illness but don’t cure it guaranteeing permanent addicted customers. Just listen to the side effects of drugs advertised on TV. The side effects are worse than the symptoms and the possible consequences are the medical conditions which the drugs claim to obscure but not cure. Artificial drugs are a sledgehammer used to modify sensitive biological metabolic equilibrium. The results are devastating in the long duration causing just more biological metabolic disequilibrium in the long duration and a need for further sledgehammer approaches which often result in lifespan shortening.

Over prescription of pain killers, opioids, mood enhancing drugs, anti psychotic drugs, antibiotics, and pills in general has made the majority of Americans dependent on medication of some kind and the number taking 5 or more pills is accelerating, especially among the elderly. Big medicine, high insurance, and medical malpractice suits are causing much disillusionment in the profession. Fewer and fewer humans are choosing  to enter the medical profession and fewer and fewer humans believe that doctors are trying to cure them but are just cynically considering them as a source for renewed prescriptions and income.

Big internet tech companies are the next great source for future lousy information and excessive censorship of ideas and news. Fake news and fake information has made the public lose trust in what they are getting from the media and internet tech companies. Almost all attempts at regaining this trust seem to be colossal failures. Once trust is lost it can take decades or lifetimes to get the trust back.

How do you censor moral free speech from fake and immoral free speech with an algorithm which is just to all law abiding humans? It is mission impossible and the only way out is to patronize smaller internet websites whose mission is clearly stated and worthwhile enough to be financially supported by a loyal readership.

Internet censorship is just one step away from a tyrannical big government with basically one party or two parties that have one and the same philosophy. Many have already complained that there is no difference in the Republican or the Democratic establishment parties. The rich get richer, the middle class is dying fast, the welfare class grows, and the average working citizen is being largely ignored by the politicians.

Many special interest laws have been passed with so many that Congress no longer can pass understandable plain English laws which mean what they say on paper. There are so many vague laws passed which rely upon the bureaucracy interpreting the laws and actually enforcing them via the legal system. Bureaucratic bias is rampant and small businesses who can’t afford an expensive lawyer to explain the laws are at a considerable disadvantage.

Big money power and bigness in general is oppressing the individual and any rights that he or she may still have by law in the constitution. Humans are being royally fucked by big money, big economy, big medicine, big food or farming, big education, big information, and big government system. It seems things will only get worse with the passage of time. If you are smart then you will patronize organic food, minimal medicine or minimal usage of drugs both legal and illegal, promote useful education, and try to pass on your morality to your offspring if you decide to have any offspring.

The problem with big lifeforms is that they are usually too big, too slow, too inefficient, and too stupid to survive in the long duration once they have devoured all the medium sized and little lifeforms. Yes, decentralization is a possible alternative for bigness not becoming extinct but promoting small businesses is the ultimate antidote to a big or huge corrupted dying organism.

GUTTER POLITICS AND THE GLOBALISTS ARE LAUGHING ALL THE WAY TO THE BANK!!!

It is no surprise that once the establishment media became the tabloid press almost all political discourse has become unprincipled gutter politics and not worthy of much attention. Fortunately there are alternate media sites which take much smart research. Unfortunately the days of investigative reporting and weeding out corruption is on the way out due to excessive cost and media shrinkage. Who will do the investigative reporting of the future? Probably only the well connected with an ax to grind for personal benefit.

That being said the globalists have merrily gone on to consolidate their international monetary dominance and are more powerful than ever. The more chaos in the world that there is the more there is the probability of making money from the chaos via the international banking system and international corporations. Unsolved is the Chinese, Russian,  North Korean, Iranian, and other tyrant threats worldwide as the military industrial complex goes merrily about making money from munitions and defense systems. Nuclear proliferation is just another excuse to spur the development of new and better defensive systems and keep many nations on edge thinking that they too may have to be next at going nuclear for defensive reasons.

Google, Amazon, Facebook, Apple, etc. started in the United States but are now international global companies basically interested in the bottom line or profit internationally. United States morality and politics is no longer the overriding concern but global politics is definitely being catered to. National censorship primarily based on money is becoming standard procedure and many nations are beginning to imitate Chinese censorship principles.

If you have the money then you can probably travel to any country other than North Korea. The world is in secure rich hands and the globalists are laughing all the way to the bank as ordinary citizens in most of the world are living from paycheck to paycheck and hope with a lot of fear that their personal lives don’t crash and burn if a personal emergency befalls them. Globalist ideology must and will survive and it is not within the power of the average individual to do anything about this dire situation.

Historically the United States was the moral and political backbone of the world but unfortunately like all national empires it has morally and politically decayed rapidly and will not be the moral and political backbone for the future world.

The internet was fun while anyone could join at minimal expense. Due to fake news and fake information trust is becoming the overall consideration and Google is even considering the elimination of IP addresses. There goes my free website uldissprogis.com and possibly my freedom to roam the internet at will, collect information cheaply, and publish with one click. How long this enjoyed freedom will last is debatable but I have enjoyed every moment of it and hope that my internet freedom will last about 20 more years.

Ha! I doubt this. Google already has an encrypted format which censors my wildlife picture quotes on the internet. Yes. Internet life is beginning to suck a lot for me and I think that it will get a lot worse in the near future. Will I trust an almost trillion dollar company to do my internet censoring? Hell no! I will go elsewhere if that is still a possibility and Google will lose my patronage even more.

BIG MONEY IS PROBABLY WHY RESTORING TRUST IN JOURNALISM IS IMPOSSIBLE!!!

Ann Curry makes a plea for a return to truthful journalism in an era of big money corporate control over the establishment media and internet. Establishment media is incredibly biased and opinionated and often uses dubious statistical results and opinion polls to back up their propaganda which has existed for years and is mostly left wing biased. Advertising revenue and viewing statistics largely determine what is presented to the public and the ultimate result is that the information keeps you ignorant and uninformed on facts but is rich in politically correct ideology.

To put it bluntly, most media is no longer trusted and restoring that trust will have to take many years of truthful reporting or the establishment media will never be trusted again.

The only way to restore credible journalism is to support credible internet media with your monetary donations or subscriptions and promote alternate truthful media or websites with tens of thousands of subscribers.

The truth is not popular and is either right or wrong and if you pursue it then you will probably soon begin to call yourself an independent who agrees with the truth that the left and right have to offer or the best truth that the conservative and liberal have to offer.

The truth about the Cloud Act!

The government cannot take our property, papers, or us, without a valid warrant.

This video should scare the shit out of you because essentially the Cloud Act permits foreign governments to spy on you via the internet and access you private information. It is a blatant attempt to strip you of your privacy and the beneficiaries will be big international corporations and ultimately a world government which will suppress small businesses and individuals who attempt small entrepreneurial enterprises that may be non conforming to global standards whatever those standards may ultimately be.

It is sad that so few average citizens really don’t give a shit about what is actually going on or really understand the ultimate consequences.

THE UNITED STATES HAS ENTERED A NEW ERA IN POLITICS!!!

Politics used to be rather boring and predictable with standard decorum and rituals or traditions which were repeated over and over again with boring regularity. Gone is the era of relative predictability and politics now is an all out slugfest where insults, put downs, name calling, ridicule, guilt by association, slander, and humiliation are standardly used against political opponents and media talking heads.

Traditional news conferences with the media are few and far between, there is no trust in the leadership of either party, the establishment or legacy media has justly been assailed as a biased source of some fake news, the highest levels of leadership positions have gone unfilled, and the current status of rational political discourse is a chaotic emotional shambles.

Economic prudence is out the window and the only area of political bipartisan agreement seems to be compromise on how much more money is going to be spent on bureaucratic entitlements while increasing the national debt.

There are no longer charismatic leaders which have been untainted by some corruption and many inexperienced and unqualified celebrities are written about as possible future presidents.

It is easy to use one human as a scapegoat and accuse Trump of being the sole cause of this chaotic political turnaround but the roots of the problem run much deeper. The cause of the current day situation is a basic moral corruption in society which glorifies promiscuity, hedonism, drug use, deviant lifestyles, and has a crude intolerant liberal ideology which has seeped into the educational system, the establishment media, and celebrities in general. Respect and admiration for the establishment has bit the dust and whether credibility and trust can be restored like the rising phoenix from the ashes of immoral behavior is debatable.

Nothing short of a moral revival can potentially cure the political and social malaise but it will take decades to reestablish. A secular moral code with real life current examples taught to all impressionable young minds in elementary schools is vital. Without this indoctrination the insecure and unpredictable state of society will not improve and trusting peaceful cooperation between citizens and between citizens and their leaders will not be possible in the long duration. Stringent media censorship and propagandizing a leftist intolerant ideology is not an easy and quick solution if the populace and leadership is basically immoral and corrupt.

What is necessary is a return to integrity or honesty and morality, family values, useful education, financial responsibility, and a media promoting objective journalism. Media not riddled with fake news using intimidation tactics, guilt by association, and ideological purity or political correctness is the only thing which will save this nation in the long duration from becoming a third world country or possibly even a tyranny.

Big money without a moral backbone corrupts internationally and nationally and it is no wonder that qualified smart humans don’t want to enter politics and get on an unending treadmill of money solicitations and molding their political discourse based on the latest dubious polling trends. Politicians sucking up to big money is proving to be the downfall of moral statesmanship which this country sorely needs more of. The health and wellbeing of the average citizen is being almost totally ignored. Religion used to help in filling the essential moral vacuum which today is becoming a moral vacuum without a common secular moral code as a trusted fervently believed behavioral guide.

Far from being pessimistic I see some hope in alternate media and the internet as long as it doesn’t become an exclusive propaganda mouthpiece of the ruling monied establishment. Ultimately if anything has the potential to improve a society it is a responsible press. In the era of the internet this means responsible moral individuals and organizations or groups with internet access to the world where they can promote their views and facts, hopefully in an open source way.

Moral communication and activity is vital. Without it society ceases to function efficiently and it degenerates into a costly bureaucratic surveillance society with safe gated communities and the rest functioning as best they can in an insecure survival of the fittest mode.

I personally don’t fear turmoil in society because it is a barometer of change in society which it definitely going on. How society will adapt and change in the face of political uncertainty is going to be an interesting circus to watch or follow. Will this circus last for another 7 years followed by more of the same is debatable but well worth the wait. Enjoy!

COMPLICATED LOUSY ADVICE FOR A SMALL INTERNET BUSINESS!!!

I came across this on Pinterest entitled “50 Marketing Habits Every Business Should Have” and was shocked by the make work advice which would take so much time, effort, and money that it poses an insurmountable obstacle for any small business or human desiring to have a successful internet presence. Gone are the relatively simple days of have a great product or service, advertise, and make some money.

Here are the recommendations and the reality-

Write a blog and share helpful info weekly.

Write a guest blog.

The major reason blogs no longer work is that in writing on a weekly basis the average human runs out of helpful things to say and the blog stagnates or gets totally ignored.

Advertise on Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin, and Pinterest:

This in reality would cost a boatload of money since big money international and national companies and establishment media get priority placement on all four major social media websites and realistically small money operators are pushed down to a very low priority, effectively don’t exist, and is wasted advertising dollars.

Big business is already bombarding social media with almost daily e-mails and ads which are frankly annoying and a big pain in the butt. Do you want your small business to be as annoying as the big businesses who supposedly know what they are doing?

Use your social media to engage fans:

Send an e-mail newsletter:

Collect e-mail addresses:

Offer a discount or special offer:

Host a giveaway:

Ask customers for referrals:

Ask friends and family for referrals:

Ask customers for testimonials:

Offer a freebie to fans:

Thank your customers:

Ask customers for feedback:

Use videos to market your business:

Send personal cards to customers:

All of the above are huge time consumers unless you have a sophisticated software program which automatically performs these functions and such a program if it exists probably costs an arm and a leg. You can engage “fans” if you have a boatload of products and services to offer but if you are pushing a handful of items or deals then your customer base will get bored and annoyed at your constant emails and offers for the same stuff over and over again.

Create a referral network with other professionals.

Sponsor a cause or local event.

Get interviewed on a blog, magazine, or podcast.

Use SEO to drive traffic.

Network with other business owners.

Use Google adwords.

Network in Linkedin groups.

Host an online workshop, webinar, or training.

Submit articles to a large website.

Write a press release.

Network in Facebook groups.

Create your own Facebook group.

Create a Google + page.

Join Google+ communities to network.

Create an Instagram profile.

Offer an affiliate program.

Ask another business to promote your business.

Most importantly, every day: provide value.

The last hint basically says it all. Every day: provide value. Not only is this an impossible objective to meet but you will be howling in the internet wilderness with few customers paying attention to your inefficient attempts at communicating on a daily basis. If you do keep in touch with your customers on a daily basis then you will probably be more annoying than helpful with a boring repetitive mantra.

Not widely recognized is the problem that there are many fly by night businesses which open up on the internet and try to scam humans in some way. This is why established internet businesses, websites, and search engines are reluctant to promote you for fear that their customer base will complain. Search engine algorithms with a reputation to maintain will put you at a very low priority level unless you have been around for many years and have a wide internet presence.

The almost impossible task of developing a good reputation on the internet overnight is what will keep your startup business small and unknown for many years if not indefinitely. There is also the great probability that if your business idea, product, or service is very useful it will probably be stolen or copied and promoted by other websites, only better.

Conclusion:

Big money and sophisticated software algorithms with big data access and further refinements have an incredible advantage over a new money poor business startup and even big businesses don’t realize how offensive their deluge of emails and ads really are and make humans angry at their blatant aggressiveness.

Realistically can you really tell by the above advice how much time, effort, and money you will have to shell out to get each additional customer?  What is the cost in time and money for getting one customer who may not even be a repeat customer? The answer is no one knows or can tell you with any degree of accuracy, especially for a new startup internet business.

In the traditional brick and mortar small business world it often takes a minimum of 5 years working at no profit at all for a business to survive in the long duration.

What are the financial specs on the internet? I don’t think anyone really knows and can give you any real dollar and time amounts. I Googled the question and no one has done any research to date which has been authoritatively published.

So you are out there on the internet all by yourself doing tens of things all in the hope of making a buck and not knowing how effective your efforts really are in the real internet world. It is a real crap shoot and the odds are overwhelmingly against you.

Is there such a thing as good and bad marketing habits on the internet? I doubt that anyone really knows for sure. If big business knows then I am sure that they are keeping it a big secret.

THE INTERNET WAS AND STILL IS AN ASSAULT ON SOCIAL COHESION OR CULTURE!!!

Concept Connections Blue Background

Concept Connections Blue Background

Not so obvious to some, the internet was creating and is still creating cultural chaos with many prominent writers having lost their jobs and losing a national audience with it. Free information is very alluring but the reality is that the producers of the information have to be paid somehow and quality information is costly.

The quality of the culture has suffered and we are being brainwashed to buy crap and read crappy information more than ever. Crappy information may entertain many but it helps almost no one to realistically lead a better quality life.

Today more and more are trapped in their social networks all pursuing their mundane interests and having less and less political and social values in common with most of the citizens of a country or even world.

The real challenge is to create a new world culture which spans borders and creates a necessary worldwide secular morality to replace the old and decaying religious ones. I am perhaps one of the few who sense an urgency to restore a common human morality if we are not to descend into political chaos followed by tyranny.

Personal tradition is overwhelming national and religious tradition.  Search engines like Google are struggling to regain some sense of order out of the chaos that it helped to create. Google’s latest emphasis is on professional and reputable publications rather than promoting publications based on keywords and followings which often have no connection to quality of input but are quantitative standards which can and often do promote mediocrity and sensationalism.

China was well aware of the threat posed to its leadership by the internet and continues to the present day to censor what it deems political or social dissent.

Censorship of the internet is inevitable and welcome to some extent even though it may take many years to make some areas of it a quality experience for all who choose to partake and it will probably be at some additional cost to the customer or consumer.

THE TRUTH ABOUT REGISTRATION+

Registration-Sign-K-5439

Registration: n. recording existence under a legal authority such as an organization and/or government

You frequently have to register or sign your name at a minimum to be able to take advantage of a service or become a member of an organization.

Becoming a member of an official group of humans means registration and even the internet is gravitating towards official registration under your real name or identity if you want to benefit from an internet service.

There are of course secret societies and unofficial groups which do not require official registration and participation is permitted in them.

THE TRUTH ABOUT ROAMING+

International-Roaming

Roam: v. to wander with a vehicle and/or using the internet

There is basically no difference between wandering and roaming unless you specify a specific means of wandering. You can wander in the woods and wander on the internet and do other relatively aimless random things so I have defined roaming as wandering in a vehicle and/or wandering on the internet.

THE INTERNET WILL SOON STOP WORKING PROPERLY IF IT IS NOT RADICALLY UPDATED!!!

20110624-BandwidthChart

The warning signs are already apparent. One company, Netflix, during peak hours is hogging about 35 percent of internet bandwidth. New high resolution technologies promise real time wireless audio video feeds which will clog the present bandwidth available.

No one has published a technical paper evaluating what must be done to avoid disaster and whether it is even possible to process so much information wirelessly and connect it all to internet cable transmission. If it is merely a question of dollars then a solution is possible but if there are technical limits then making the internet hoggers pay an arm and a leg for the service seems to be the only solution.

Net neutrality or relatively cheap internet service for everyone big or small seems to be an impossible pipedream.

Is it physically possible to have worldwide seamless communication for 6 billion humans using their cellphones 24/7? This scary question needs an answer and relatively soon or the internet will quickly come to a grinding halt with billions of unsatisfied customers. If it is technologically possible then I think the price tag will be outrageous and only the rich will be able to get all the bells and whistles which the internet theoretically promises for everyone.

IF YOU ARE A NOBODY ON THE INTERNET THEN YOU WILL PROBABLY STAY THAT WAY!!!

Theoretically the internet is open to all and offers the enticing prospect of communicating worldwide. The truth is you will probably be stuck in your social network forever dreaming of becoming a celebrity with a huge following someday.

Join Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin, Google+, Pinterest, or WordPress and start posting articles, trying to develop a community, and communicating non stop with old and theoretically new friends. The end result is the same. You grow tired of posting, communicating with humans who have little relevance to your life, and soon give up your dream of becoming someone important on the internet.

Form a community on Google+ and your community won’t even come up during a search alphabetically from another computer.

Join Facebook and be inundated with ads and humans that you want no part of and you will soon find yourself unfriending many of them because they add no value to your life but just consume your valuable time.

Join Pinterest and none of your postings will be displayed for view by the public but only yourself and some friendly followers.

Blog on WordPress and you will run out of ideas to blog about and if you do write to please only yourself then you will find that no one is interested. Post a blog and it is only active for the first two or three hours and after that your blog is forgotten history.

Post articles on Linkedin and you are lucky if you get a handful of views and then your article is forgotten history.

Create a channel on Youtube and no one will find it because your channel is low man on the totem pole of selection criteria.

Self publish on Amazon and your book will not even appear in alphabetical order according to title during a title search. Your book will be lost somewhere in the deep bottom of the Amazon search engines which do all the posting and prioritization unless you have money clout.

The internet is for the rich and powerful who can get their articles priority posting by the big companies who do all the selections and prioritizations. If you pay them the money then Google, Youtube, Linkedin, Amazon, Pinterest, Facebook, etc will introduce you or what you have to sell to their audience. If you are an unknown no matter how good you might be then you will be ignored and forgotten unless you pay up.

If you have no money or celebrity clout then unfortunately you will remain a nobody in the internet world. Netflix is already hogging about 35% of the bandwidth on the internet during peak hours and other big companies will be hogging more and more of the internet bandwidth making your items low priority on the list for delivery. If net neutrality is not promoted then I am afraid that the internet will be the domain of the rich and powerful with all the privileges and priorities on the internet.

THE TRUTH ABOUT NET NEUTRALITY+

bilde

Should the internet have a watchdog or rules which make its use just for almost all users?

Without regulation or rules it is possible for monopoly companies to get preferential treatment and pay much less for internet usage than the common human and any new startup company.

Size and money is an unfair advantage over small internet businesses which could be potentially censored at will by having to pay more money for the service and getting slower access times. The hoggers of internet access like Netflix, Google, and BitTorrent should pay more for bandwidth than smaller users and not less but this is counter to the business philosophy that volume means a lower price for the service. The hoggers of bandwidth should pay more and subsidize the small users who are not hogs of the internet but are in fact enslaved by the big monopoly users who want to maintain their power indefinitely so that they can charge whatever they want for the service.

I see satellite communications as a competitor of cable services but it will require much money to make the competition a reality and I am sure that the cable companies will fight desperately trying to maintain their stranglehold over current internet business.

The internet pricing policy is skewed in favor of bigness and does not give the little business a fighting chance. It is ultimately a question of just pricing policy for the big and small and rules or laws must be put in place so that there is pricing justice for all legal internet users!!!!!!

A relatively objective evaluation of net neutrality giving the pros and cons is found in this brief article in scientificamerican.com.

FACEBOOK IS SUFFERING FROM GROWING PAINS AND ADVERTISER’S GREED!!!

images

Class action suits are starting to be filed against Facebook for reading customer’s private messages and still more will come if it can be proved that Facebook is selling like link information to advertisers who are then posting their ads on all the friend’s sites too.

It is too free a system where anyone can introduce Malware and spam via a shared link which can then be propagated through a large part of the system.  With freedom to share comes the responsibility of not introducing Malware and spam which few are capable of doing. Will Facebook eventually self destruct with too much sharing freedom and unscrupulous advertisers shoving their wares down your throat?

Only time will tell and if Facebook can’t reform itself for the better then other sites will arise and provide a customer with what they really need and want without the extra annoying unwanted advertising baggage.

My wordpress website is suffering from many unauthorized unwanted advertising links and I am sure that is the same fate for many Facebook customers!

SHARING AND PROFIT, A PHILOSOPHICAL DILEMMA FOR THE INTERNET!!!

images

Humans like to share their emotions, information, some products, and some services. The internet is potentially the best source for freely sharing information but unfortunately what is being shared is digitalized artwork, pictures, music, movies and other video products which is creative work that contributing humans would like to get paid for and maybe make a little profit.

How do you make a profit if what you create is sold only once and potentially shared by the world? Why tax or charge for every sharing transaction of a bought piece of information worldwide!

What this means is that you can recommend or share for free via a sample digital snippet of music, movie, or article but if you want the complete work or information or product then you have to order or pay for it from the individual provider. Yes, the provider or seller may be a monopoly distributor but this permits them to censor your intellectual property and keep it at the bottom of the barrel and put no effort towards advertising it to the public.

Whoever was interested in your complete personal product would have to buy only from you directly and this would ensure that you would justly be paid for the mass appeal that your information or product would have.

In effect every creative person would have a cash register in their home and would charge the going price to whomever was interested and knocked on their doorstep. Yes, mass advertisers or distributors could still work out business deals with you promoting your creative efforts for a percentage of your profits but you would be guaranteed that you know exactly how much you sold and the advertiser, promoter, or distributor would not be able to scam you secretly and steal from you.

Effectively your website or cellphone would have a SHARED compartment and a BOUGHT compartment which you could not share with anyone but yourself or only on your personal device. Your personal device could be shared physically with family members and friends with physical access to your personal device.

That physical personal device could potentially be used by thousands of humans whom you decided to share with but that would take a considerable amount of time and it would not be instant access to the world via the internet!

This system would require considerable cooperation worldwide and require massive hardware and software changes but it is potentially doable and it is about the only just internet system which can be devised by humans.

This would also ensure some degree of privacy and you would not have to share your purchases with the world.

THE IDEAL: A WORLDWIDE BILL OF RIGHTS FOR THE INTERNET OR WEB!!!

internet

Relatively easy communication with anyone on the planet is an ideal goal which may not be realized in your lifetime. The reality is that internet freedoms are being quickly eroded by governments and rich internet providers or corporations. What we sorely need is standardized laws or a bill of rights for internet use so that even the poorest among us have an opportunity to safely roam the web and interact rather freely with the humans in it and the wealth of knowledge or information which exists in it.

Here is a Ted link which identifies internet problems and how we may potentially solve them for the benefit of almost everyone and not just the few and wealthy and politically powerful.

http://www.ted.com/talks/tim_berners_lee_a_magna_carta_for_the_web

For starters here are a few rights which I would recommend:

A right to freely access scientific papers more than a year old.

A right to freely access medical research and clinical trials more than a year old.

A right to freely access bank IRS statements more than a year old.

A right to freely access IRS statements of corporations with a net worth of 10 billion dollars+ and which are more than a year old.

A right to freely access the IRS records of politicians and their relatives which are more than a year old.

Follow the money and there is a possibility of weeding out corruption in society and keeping it to a minimum!!!!!! Good knowledge is also power so open source information in science, medicine, and agriculture or food is vital to a healthy smart society.

WHAT WE CAN POTENTIALLY LEARN FROM THOSE AMAZING ANTS!!!

olimar-and-louie-vs-the-infamous-fire-ants-40372

Humans are controlled by many actions and reactions to the external world, especially of control by other humans and it is rarely central control. Ants operate rather autonomously from central control and we can maybe learn much about resource allocation, how the brain works, how to make the internet function more securely and efficiently, and ant behavior can possibly even teach us about how to control the growth of cancer cells with useful algorithms applied to chemical interactions.

Here is a great inspirational link.

THE TRUTH ABOUT CENSORSHIP

google-censored

You can’t publish anything which you want and do anything which you want and the forbidden publication or behavior is what is censored.

There are libelous publications which can unjustly ruin a human’s reputation and there is child pornography which most societies censor. In totalitarian countries political free expression is also censored and you can’t write articles criticizing the leadership. Profanity is also frequently censored in the public media.

There is no pure freedom of speech in society because publishing untruths or lies about someone who is not a public official can ruin a good reputation and severely hurt someone’s ability to make a living in society.

Military secrets are also censored which would compromise national security if they became public knowledge.

Government censors some political activities of government committees from the public where special deals are made favoring some special interests and this can be considered a bad form of censorship. Open source government would go a long way towards making government less corrupt but the politically powerful factions and politicians are generally against such sunshine public activity.

The internet is being censored to try and exclude criminal behavior such as terrorist plots and stealing of money, intellectual property, and identities. The censorship which is not so obvious is search engines with algorithms which favor information published by financially well off corporations and websites and exclude many small websites from easy access.

Search engines like Google and Bing are in fact powerful censors who have incredible control over what is published and how it is published frequently favoring the rich and powerful over the poor humans.

Privacy or keeping personal information from public view is becoming increasingly difficult if you use the internet. Soon your communications, medical records, and financial transactions may become public knowledge. Only the rich will be able to keep their lives private with encryption communications which will be harder to steal unless you are the NSA with government backing and have the ability to decode the communications.

Finally government tries to censor criminal behavior by passing laws which are then enforced by the legal system and police.

CONCLUSION:

The rich and powerful will always find ways to keep their private information from public view through self-censorship. Whether common humans can maintain their privacy is an open question right now.

Censoring the internet to some extent is necessary but the real question is- Who will be in a position to censor and what kind of controls or safeguards will there be against unjust censorship by the rich and powerful financial interests and government?

THE TRUTH ABOUT THE INTERNET

download (1)

Gone will be the days when you can get something for nothing on the internet. Free email worldwide, free chatting worldwide, free blogging worldwide, free search engines, and free social media worldwide will someday all have to be paid for with a special fee.

Google and Facebook will just become another cable channel like Netflix which we have to pay for separately. Security concerns may cause some to utilize apps such as Telegram for a fee.

Finally the luxury of unlimited interconnectivity may disappear and each of us will have to pay proportionately for the amount of time spent on the internet unless the government makes the internet a utility and offers the service for free to all its citizens no matter how much time that you spend on it or the number of megabytes which you download per day.

If current trends continue then innovation on the internet will stagnate and may become a very boring place watching the same old shit and not getting to watch some interesting new shit.

There is already a complaint by many smart humans that there are so many TV channels and nothing to watch. The same may someday be true of the internet.

HOW THE INTERNET IS CHANGING BUSINESS AND OUR LIVES

200 (6)

            The internet is revolutionizing the world and is becoming a threat to many specialty local businesses.  Book stores are threatened and video and music stores are going out of business. Movie theaters are suffering and electronic stores and greeting card stores are hurting. Internet retailers are severely impacting local retailers and winning over many customers.

Middlemen wholesalers are being severely affected by direct online sales as more and more humans buy online.

Dating and communicating on the internet is changing the way that we socialize. Socializing on the internet is also rapidly replacing the need to socialize in person and this is a great efficient change in human behavior.

More and more of us are getting our information and products on the internet.  We can surf the internet and get most of our entertainment there.

About 2.2 billion humans use the internet worldwide which means the world will soon become one great interacting community without borders. Global retailing, global socializing, and global education is what we can look forward to.

Soon schooling will be interactive audio visual education on the internet and the dysfunctional public school system with the exception of elementary school will be threatened with obsolescence.

My book EDUCATION REFORM details the inevitable changes necessary to free people from the unacceptable substandard education in this country and world.  Future lives will mostly be spent on the internet and more and more of us will be living sedentary lives.
