Why do well funded sites delete information? 404 not found

 

 

  How many times have any of us, saved a link to some page.  Particularly a government site, featuring transportation plans.  

The page url links initially displayed useful information.

Yet some time later, the very same url no longer shows such information. 

404 not found.

Or that image removed for maintenance.

 WTF.

The information was initially posted.  The research time and effort was already done.

And please lets NOT allow the excuse of a lack of computer storage space.  WTF- with the ever shrinking pricing on computer memory, hard drives et al, there is absolutely ZERO EXCUSE FOR THAT!

 So where can we see any expose of such despicable practices?

 Any mass mainstream media news articles?  Magazines?  New York Times or Washington Post editorials decrying such nonsense?

Can we please have an expose of the people involved in such deletions?

It reeks of some sort of brotherhood/sisterhood ploy.

 

Quite likely by various such human cluster-yucks dedicated to stymieing research especially when involving matters relating to multi billion dollar markets, aka the agricultural commodities relating to the criminal sociopathic U.S. led "drug war".  (Just try finding information upon opposition to such throughout and following the administration of masonic order tool Teddy Roosevelt.  Or medical journal information listing the differences between the multitude of oral preparations marketed as "Coca").

And how about that Catholic Church religious order founded circa 1534 - the so called Society of Jesus with its mission to shape popular conception, by places its imprint upon matter of education and libraries like an Aliens xenomorph face-hugger upon its human hosts face.

These allied organizations all work together as a team.  

 

Just look what happened with the planning in Washington DC with the horrifically placed Nationals Baseball Stadium to block the 1990s U.S.Nationals capital Planning Commission for a South Mall extending south along a widened South Capital corridor.

Despite being featured with different versions from 1996 to about 2003, the Catholic church controlled District authorities push through this albatross to violate the proposed linear park's space- saving a single architecturally significant building, the St Vincent DePaul Chiurch erected around 2006, the very year of the US Food and Drug Act empowering the USDA to violate science and public health to protect markets for Tobacco particularly by groundlessless orchestrating a ban on its its safe alternative of Coca.  And quite ironically that church structure sits upon the site of the former canal loading area for the adjacent Carrol family house for loading Tobacco crops- go figure.

MLB team franchise heads reportedly voted unanimous to approve this stadium site.  And the DC City Council initially votes AGAINST the stadium.  But suspiciously it reconvenes in an after midnite closed door session to change that NO to a Yes!

 

That stadium is built and completed in time for U.S. President George Bush 43 to have his opportunity to throw the season's opening ceremonial ball.

 

A Papal mass is held there April 17, 2008.

 

If anyone in the mainstream media was writing any sort of expose of such, it was absent from any public publication.

 

And as with numerous web sites, information is suspiciously deleted.

 

Can we please have an expose upon why we entrust stooges of the catholic church within the media and the government, outside of entities specifically labeled as catholic or jesuit, or knights of malta, etc.

The Censoring by the Medical Dictators

You Tube Admits to conspiracy to censor politically shunned medicine, see below.

How about fully televised Capital Hill Senate/Congressional hearings, with subpoenas of YouTube, Google (which purchased YouTube in 2005), and other tech giant officials regarding their internal discussions regarding this institution of censorship under the guise of combating "medical disinformation"

Let us ask John L. Hennessy, CEO of something called "Alphabet Inc." which owns Google, his honest opinion upon this policy, on live television.

 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_L._Hennessy

How about Google's CEO (since 2015)  Sundar Pichai (birthname Pichai Sundararajan)?

  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sundar_Pichai

And how about You Tube's CEO (since February 2023), Neal Mohan?

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neal_Mohan

And what about Mohan's predessessor, Suzanne Wojcicki, the YouTube CEO (2014-2023)

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Susan_Wojcicki

Alphabet, Inc. owns Google, and Google owns YouTube.

So, do these respective CEOs (YouTube's Wojcicki & Mohan), and Google's Pichai, actually believe in the sort of nonsense contained within the following You Tube article concerning their "medical misinformation" policies.

https://blog.youtube/inside-youtube/a-long-term-vision-for-medical-misinformation-policies/

 August 15, 2023

An update on how YouTube is thinking about the future of medical misinformation policies, including removing cancer misinformation.

In the years since we began our efforts to make YouTube a destination for high-quality health content, we’ve learned critical lessons about developing Community Guidelines in line with local and global health authority guidance on topics that pose serious real-world risks, such as misinformation on COVID-19, vaccines, reproductive health, harmful substances, and more. We’re taking what we’ve learned so far about the most effective ways to tackle medical misinformation to simplify our approach for creators, viewers, and partners.

As medical information – and misinformation – continuously evolves, YouTube needs a policy framework that holds up in the long term, and preserves the important balance of removing egregiously harmful content while ensuring space for debate and discussion. While specific medical guidance can change over time as we learn more, our goal is to ensure that when it comes to areas of well-studied scientific consensus, YouTube is not a platform for distributing information that could harm people.

Moving forward, YouTube will streamline dozens of our existing medical misinformation guidelines to fall under three categories – Prevention, Treatment, and Denial. These policies will apply to specific health conditions, treatments, and substances where content contradicts local health authorities or the World Health Organization (WHO).

To determine if a condition, treatment or substance is in scope of our medical misinformation policies, we’ll evaluate whether it’s associated with a high public health risk, publicly available guidance from health authorities around the world, and whether it’s generally prone to misinformation.

Here’s what the framework will look like:

• Prevention misinformation: We will remove content that contradicts health authority guidance on the prevention and transmission of specific health conditions, and on the safety and efficacy of approved vaccines. For example, this encompasses content that promotes a harmful substance for disease prevention.
• Treatment misinformation: We will remove content that contradicts health authority guidance on treatments for specific health conditions, including promoting specific harmful substances or practices. Examples include content that encourages unproven remedies in place of seeking medical attention for specific conditions, like promoting caesium chloride as a treatment for cancer.
• Denial misinformation: We will remove content that disputes the existence of specific health conditions. This covers content that denies people have died from COVID-19.

Our goal is to make the rules of the road clearer and have a more transparent framework in place for evaluating whether certain diseases or conditions would be included in the future. Check out our Help Center for even more details and examples.

 

Removing cancer treatment misinformation

When cancer patients and their loved ones are faced with a diagnosis, they often turn to online spaces to research symptoms, learn about treatment journeys, and find community. Our mission is to make sure that when they turn to YouTube, they can easily find high-quality content from credible health sources.

In applying our updated approach, cancer treatment misinformation fits the framework – the public health risk is high as cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, there is stable consensus about safe cancer treatments from local and global health authorities, and it’s a topic that’s prone to misinformation,.

Starting today and ramping up in the coming weeks, we will begin removing content that promotes cancer treatments proven to be harmful or ineffective, or content that discourages viewers from seeking professional medical treatment. This includes content that promotes unproven treatments in place of approved care or as a guaranteed cure, and treatments that have been specifically deemed harmful by health authorities. For instance, a video that claims “garlic cures cancer,” or “take vitamin C instead of radiation therapy” would be removed.

And as part of our ongoing work to increase the amount of high-quality health content on YouTube, we’re publishing a playlist of engaging, informative cancer-related videos from a range of authoritative sources, and we’re collaborating with Mayo Clinic on new video content to share information on a variety of cancer conditions.

Debate and discussion are critical to the advancement of science and medicine. We always carefully take into account context when enforcing our policies, and allow content that provides educational, documentary, scientific and artistic (EDSA) context. One element we consider is public interest. This means that we may allow content that is sufficiently in the public interest to remain on YouTube, even if it otherwise violates our policies – for example, a video of a public hearing or comments made by national political candidates on the campaign trail that disputes health authority guidance, or graphic footage from active warzones or humanitarian crises. We may also make exceptions for personal testimonies or content that discusses the results of a specific medical study. Adding context to a video doesn’t guarantee that it’ll be allowed to remain, and we may also age-gate some content or surface an information panel underneath these videos to provide additional context for viewers.

Looking ahead, we want to make sure there is a robust framework to build upon when the need for new medical misinformation policies arises. We’ll continue to monitor local and global health authority guidance to make sure our policies adapt. We want our approach to be clear and transparent, so that content creators understand where the policy lines are, and viewers know they can trust the health information they find on YouTube.

So would not that mean censoring information about Cannabis as a treatment for fighting cancer?

Are we to really suppose that the emergence of the "war on drugs" to ban completely ban cocaine and opiates from normal discourse, was simply about protecting the public's health?  Or to the contrary, was in fact a contrivance to protect established economic interests of Coffee, Tea, and particularly Tobacco.

This backdrop belaying any notion of state infallibility.  Hence this most recent rebranding of censorship as blocking medical disinformation with COVID is profoundly problematic.

Notably, the U.S. government's own National Library of Medicine rejects such policies.

 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7645258/

 Although the censorship on social media may seem an efficient and immediate solution to the problem of medical and scientific misinformation, it paradoxically introduces a risk of propagation of errors and manipulation. This is related to the fact that the exclusive authority to define what is “scientifically proven” or “medically substantiated” is attributed to either the social media providers or certain institutions, despite the possibility of mistakes on their side or potential abuse of their position to foster political, commercial or other interests. Focusing on understanding and studying the problem of misinformation, education and promotion of a virtuous use of social media and information seem more laborious and may not bring immediate results, but, in the long run, may contribute to a society that is more immune to infodemics.

 So, lets see some trees of evidence detailing the centralized directives for such newly rebranded censorship...

 

U.S.Romeland Security Threat Against Spotlighting Planning Corruption in Nation's Capital?

Might this be a threat against freedom of speech in my highlighting the blatant planning corruption over the Nation's Capital, Washington D.C.?

Such as my pointing out the potential link between the scuttling of JFK's B&O Route I-95 alongside Catholic University of America, with the weird 'waffling' between acceptable and outrageous planning deviations in the years following 11-22-63? - see my blog "A Trip Within the Beltway" regarding the scuttling of JFK's B&O North Central Freeway

Such as my pointing out the planning meddling with the blocking of the 1990s United States National Capital Planning Commission South Capital Mall, by the weirdly pushed through the D.C. City Council closed door mid-nite convening to change their votes in order to approve the Nationals Stadium- which had its April 17, 2008 opening mass by Pope Benedict? - see the October 2006 posts at this blog "Free Speech Beneath U.S. Homeland Security"

Or how about how the Food & Drug Administration, its predecessor Bureau of Chemistry entity at U.S.D.A., as well as undeservingly prestigious trade associations as the American Medical Association and the American Pharmaceutical Association, conspired to make cocaine into a problematic drug by banning it irrespective of actual matters of potency/abuse potential, mainly for the sake of protecting and establishing market expansion for Tobacco cigarettes?  After all, Tobacco cigarette sales grew reletively slowly for the first two decades after the debut of the Bonsack cigarette mass production industrial machinery, from the early 1880s to just after 1906, when the USDA was irresponsibly empowered by supposedly anti-trust U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt to bring about a ban on Coca leaf circa 1907+.  Coca was known as an excellent substitute for Tobacco, and infinitely more healthy.  How many people would be pissed off about this protectionism and false implication of Tobacco as "safe" because it's vast growth was tolerated at the same time that Coca leaf, Opium, and even later Cannabis was criminalized?

What if the public was finally told of these stories?  If enough of the public got mad enough to flock to Washington, D.C., would I be charged with domestic terrorism for daring spotlight such planning travesties?

---quote February 7, 2022 press release excerpt below:

DHS Issues National Terrorism Advisory System (NTAS) Bulletin

Release Date: February 7, 2022

WASHINGTON – Today, Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro N. Mayorkas issued a National Terrorism Advisory System (NTAS) Bulletin regarding the continued heightened threat environment across the United States. This is the fifth NTAS Bulletin issued by the Department of Homeland Security since January 2021 and it replaces the current Bulletin that was set to expire tomorrow. 

“DHS remains committed to proactively sharing timely information and intelligence about the evolving threat environment with the American public,” said Secretary Alejandro N. Mayorkas. “We also remain committed to working with our partners across every level of government and in the private sector to prevent all forms of terrorism and targeted violence, and to support law enforcement efforts to keep our communities safe. This NTAS Bulletin outlines the key factors that have increased the volatility, unpredictability, and complexity of the current threat environment, and highlights resources for individuals and communities to stay safe.”

The United States remains in a heightened threat environment fueled by several factors, including an online environment filled with false or misleading narratives and conspiracy theories, and other forms of mis- dis- and mal-information (MDM) introduced and/or amplified by foreign and domestic threat actors. These threat actors seek to exacerbate societal friction to sow discord and undermine public trust in government institutions to encourage unrest, which could potentially inspire acts of violence. Mass casualty attacks and other acts of targeted violence conducted by lone offenders and small groups acting in furtherance of ideological beliefs and/or personal grievances pose an ongoing threat to the nation.   

While the conditions underlying the heightened threat landscape have not significantly changed over the last year, the convergence of the following factors has increased the volatility, unpredictability, and complexity of the threat environment: (1) the proliferation of false or misleading narratives, which sow discord or undermine public trust in U.S. government institutions; (2) continued calls for violence directed at U.S. critical infrastructure; soft targets and mass gatherings; faith-based institutions, such as churches, synagogues, and mosques; institutions of higher education; racial and religious minorities; government facilities and personnel, including law enforcement and the military; the media; and perceived ideological opponents; and (3) calls by foreign terrorist organizations for attacks on the United States based on recent events.

NSA Resources MisUsed For UnConstututional Drug War

The National Security Agency and its various resources to spy upon suspected terrorists to be, is being misused to enforce the unconstitutional and socially destructive drug war.

Radley Balko has a good write of about this, citing a report by the Electronic Freedom Foundation, that was published in The Washington Post, October 29, 2014.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-watch/wp/2014/10/29/surprise-controversial-patriot-act-power-now-overwhelmingly-used-in-drug-investigations/

excerpt

More than a decade later, the Electronic Frontier Foundation has published an analysis on use of the sneak-and-peek power. Just as critics predicted, it’s now a ubiquitous part of federal law enforcement.

Law enforcement made 47 sneak-and-peek searches nationwide from September 2001 to April 2003. The 2010 report reveals 3,970 total requests were processed. Within three years that number jumped to 11,129. That’s an increase of over 7,000 requests. Exactly what privacy advocates argued in 2001 is happening: sneak and peak warrants are not just being used in exceptional circumstances—which was their original intent—but as an everyday investigative tool.

And as critics predicted, it is overwhelmingly used in cases that have nothing to do with terrorism. But even if you’re a cynic, it’s pretty shocking just how little the power is used in terrorism investigations.

Out of the 3,970 total requests from October 1, 2009 to September 30, 2010, 3,034 were for narcotics cases and only 37 for terrorism cases (about .9%). Since then, the numbers get worse. The 2011 report reveals a total of 6,775 requests. 5,093 were used for drugs, while only 31 (or .5%) were used for terrorism cases. The 2012 report follows a similar pattern: Only .6%, or 58 requests, dealt with terrorism cases. The 2013 report confirms the incredibly low numbers. Out of 11,129 reports only 51, or .5%, of requests were used for terrorism. The majority of requests were overwhelmingly for narcotics cases, which tapped out at 9,401 requests.

"Rethink 20/59" Apparent Censorship on Facebook

"Re-Think 20/59" concerns the reconstruction of the combined Interstate 20/59 segment in downtown Birmingham, Alabama, which is currently an elevated highway.

The Facebook page for "Re-Think 20/59" includes links to various articles about urban freeways and their histories.

One of these links was for an article appearing in www.VOX.com

"Highways Gutted American Cities.  So Why Did We Build Them?" by Joseph Stromberg

A story of highway engineers, institutionalized racism, and the auto industry.

http://www.vox.com/2015/5/14/8605917/highways-interstate-cities-history

Here are the comments for that posting in the Facebook "Re-Think 20/59" page:

Comments

Robert MacKay The road system in NYC keeps the public away from the riverfronts, but it is hard to imagine moving the volume of traffics through the city center. They do serve a purpose of speeding up car transit, but they also make it possible to never go "into town". And.certainly to avoid certain neighborhoods. But if the inner cities didn't have problems to avoid, there would be not much reason to avoid them.

Douglas Andrew Willinger A good article though a bit overly simplified that overlooks how many such highways could have been somewhat rerouted while still being well within the urbanized areas, such as with a great use of existing lightly developed railroad-industrial corridor and box tunnels.

Douglas Andrew Willinger Read this to see how perverting the route of a proposed highway was used to stop it from being constructed along a railroad corridor next to CUA in Washington D.C.:

Unable to post comment.

Here's the effective "security" [censorship] message.

Apparently that article from my blog "A Trip Within The Beltway" about the Washington, D.C. freeways, "A Crafted Controversy: The Scuttling of J.F.K.'s B&O North Central Freeway", which details the planning manipulations of Interstate 95 via the railroad industrial corridor favored by the Administration of U.S. President John F. Kennedy, to subvert support for such a route by Catholic University of America struck a raw nerve.

If we are to discuss "highway engineers, institutionalized racism", etc, why not discuss the details of such planning so designed to make the routing far more intrusive than necessary, simply to manipulate opposition for the sake of keeping such highways far away from the properties of some of the wealthiest and most influential entities?

A further suggested read about this phenomenon regarding the history of politically corrupted planning within Washington, D.C.:

More Illegal NSA Activity Targeting Political Dissidents?

Junk statute enforcement targets Dana Beal on his return drive to N.Y. after the end of his speaking tour, and within two days of the end of his parole- they walk the dogs around the car for 72/70 without any 20 questions routine upon a stop on I-80 in central Illinois

This week a newsstory quoted on the Instapundit blog revealed that a lot of these are actually originating from NSA intercepts, tipped to the DEA, which get passed on to State/local police with the understanding that there will NEVER be any mention of the source …. http://capitolfax.com/2014/02/06/isp-makes-big-drug-bust

Me, Douglas Willinger with Dana Beal 

appearing on stage at the Portland Oregon Hempfest, photo by Doug McVay

This occurred at about 11 pm, November 9, 2015 on eastbound I-80 in central Illinois in La Salle, near the interchange with north-south I-57.

We were both carrying cell phones while in a rented Camaro, and hence were easily traceable by the NSA.

Dana Beal and I are both long time drug policy reform activists.  Dana is especially known for his advocacy of the West African Iboga plant rootbark, and I am known for my criticism of the blanket prohibition of Coca-cocaine and the pharmaceutical-Tobacco influence over the major drug policy reform organizations as the Drug Policy Foundation- since 2000 as the Drug Policy Alliance.
