Google & Me: La Fin d'Amour

"Is dit de laatste ronde?'

'Sans' prior warning Google forces readers of adult blogs to submit proof of age before granting access. Not because Google cares, it just wants to make more money.

Last Valentine's Eve - yes that's an actual phrase now that I've invented it - we discussed Squid Game -  femdom style. Big plans for the next Valentine despite being so busy I haven't lived dangerously at all this year so far.

A while back Google required me to verify my age to see a Youtube clip by mistress Ezada. Despite the fact it's research for my next OWK article, I politely declined, wondering why mistress Ezada opted for age verification. She didn't.

Just before Valentine I discovered that my blog now forces readers to submit proof of age to Google. Of course Google didn't warn me. Back in 2015 Google tried to ban porn. Still don't know why. A huge backlash reversed Google's censorship decision. This time it's different. Pecunia, profit, Mammon, Dragnet [the movie], you name it. [1] You can still read filth like this website. Just send a copy of your pasport to Google and you're good to go. Lovely to know that Google is taking notes and watching over you, in that caring way of the almighty overlord.

According to the Wall Street Journal in 2019 "Big tech companies enjoy legal immunity premised on the assumption they’ll respect free speech." Of course they don't. Meanwhile governments continue to shy away from locking porn behind an adult verification wall, not Google. And why should it? This type of personal info is pure gold. Remember how we all live three lives, public, private and secret. That's what this is about.

I've been blogging since 2013 and I created this separate Google account a while before that. Never had to send in any proof of who I am, nor submit a phone number. Despite that Google allows me to continue to write 'filth'. Doesn't make sense, now does it.

I don't care how many people read my blog, I write because I want to express my opinion whether it is to explain the particular beauty of femdom, having fun, or point out the things that go wrong in femdomland. What I do like, is the idea that literally anyone who is interested, can read my blog without hurdles. Of course I can get my own website but I'm pretty big on privacy, so thanks but no. Anyway that's why there is no sequel to last year's Valentine's Eve. No Femdom Squid Game revisited. And why would there be? Google just obliterated the adult blogging scene with a single, money-driven decision. Meanwhile I'm wondering why and how to continue blogging. Mon dernier mot?


Face the music

Google and me have never been lovers. But with the competition falling asleep behind the wheel, what choice do people have? So it's not the end of our love story [la fin d'amour]. You cannot end what never was.

Today's track is by Claude, a 19-year old Dutch singer. In 2013 his family fled from Congo. A couple of years ago Claude performed at The Voice Kids. Last year he released 'Ladada (Mon dernier mot)', his way of giving his ex the middle finger. Fittingly Mon Dernier Mot is French for My Last Time but honestly, whatever today's topic, I would have picked this song anyway.

Two more days to go. Before it's the first year of [how] 'many more'. Evil Elon certainly is no help. The delusional Aussie, one year one, is wondering why his numbers on Twitter are down. After which he fired the engineer who provided the correct explanation. Next, leftovers were forced to come up with a way to make sure that Musky got more than his fair share of free speech. Like upping his presence in Twitter's 'You might be interested in this' section. Not.

Ukrainian fighter pilots are already training with F 16's in several countries, including the United States.

A while back Elon Musk suggested Ukraine give in to Putin's demands. At the time Futurism ran the sub-headline "you are assuming that I wish to be popular" Only now the editors realize just how true that is. Until yesterday when Elon Musk’s Space X limited Starlink use for drones. Why? Why now? "Space X says satellite communications service ‘never, never meant to be weaponized’" For someone who thinks he is smarter than any of us, Elon Musk surely took his time.

Not nearly as smart as evil Elon but here's my suggestion: designate the evil Australian American an enemy combatant. Traitor will do too. Because he is. Both. Give it a try and Starlink will be up and running, guiding Ukrainian 'fighting for freedom drones' towards 'a better world' in no time. And while we're at it, Google too, is an enemy of the people.[3]


[1] If adult verification is truly a solution,the least you can do is to separate AVS from content, meaning that if Google implements age requirements, another, independent company would carry it out. 

[2] The WSJ article's title is: Don’t Let Google Get Away With Censorship.

[3] Example: About a year ago business magazine Forbes - not know for being high on ethics - wrote how "Google Has Been Putin’s Most Compliant U.S. Tech Censor." Cute? No.
