HIT GOOGLE WHERE IT HURTS

So you want to kill google? And not just kill it, fucking demolish it? Three things need to happen. All of Google's money comes from advertising, analytics, and hosting. To kill google we need to drive up their operational costs while lowering their profits.

 

Fuck with their advertisements

If you have ever worked with adsense before you will know that the one thing they absolutely despise is telling people to click ads. They want people who are actually interested in products to click advertisements, because only they will be persuaded to purchase products. On top of that, companies pay google per click. If they are paying a ton of money and few people are buying their products, they will pull out.

STEP 1: Go on to youtube, google shopping, or anyplace else with adsense ads in private browsing mode on a vpn or proxy.

STEP 2: Click all the ads you possibly can

STEP 3: Hop on a new proxy/vpn/tor circuit, and clear out the browser

STEP 4: Repeat

???????

LOSS OF PROFIT

 

Fuck with their file storage (NOTE: This step has been discussed in the /tech/ thread, and consensus was it was highly unlikely to work unless we had HUGE numbers of people)

Google stores everything you upload, and keeps it there even if it gets "deleted." Storing stuff costs lots of money, and high speed ssd drives to keep it all on aren't cheap. The more you upload, the more they pay.

STEP 1: Choose a platform that allows you to upload files(eg: youtube, drive, gsites, ect)

STEP 2: Get a file that is at or over the maximum file limit

STEP 3: Upload it again, and again, and again, and again

EXTRA STEP: If you are doing youtube make a huge file with a ton of random music, text on the screen, and game footage. Their matching algorithm will have to go through your whole 1hr + video and match everything there for monitization.

??????

LOSS OF PROFIT

 

Fuck with analytics

Google is so popular in the analytics world because it can show advertisers what type of people are viewing their page (see http://theoutpost.observer/article.php?id=32 for a good explanation). If we can make this data unreliable then people will stop using google services.

STEP 1: Get a huge word dictionary

STEP 2: Make a small script that searches something entirely random every 20 minutes or so

STEP 3: Let it go as long as possible on as many accounts as possible

STEP 4: Go to random pages with tracking on them to give them fucked results

?????

LOSS OF PROFIT

 

Fuck with the advertisers (A.K.A. DisNod)

If companies think their users won't buy their products because of google then they will pull out and stop funding them. Youtube's budget got slashed when a few guys pulled out, just imagine what would happen if we could get a ton of people to leave.

STEP 1: Get a huge list of "medium" sized advertisers. Companies that are small enough that it is easy to get a message through to them but big enough that they have a large advertising budget.

STEP 2: Get huge volumes of well written emails to them saying that you (a past customer) are highly against google and don't want to purchase from a company that supports them. Talk about the quality of their products and say you don't want to take your business elsewhere. Sweet talk them.

STEP 3: Get fucktons of people to do this. Gamergate style, but bigger.

Internet Censorship Database thread. Pleanty of stories on Google & Youtube fucking things up. Feel free to repost stuff, just bare in mind duplicate file detection probably means it won't work, so link to the post instead.

 

As a footnote, Google pulled strings to avoid a thinktank branding them a monopoly or some anti-trust thing. They are clearly afraid of that claim, since the tank went down 24 hours after making that claim publicly. If you can nail them on that- do so.

Ad Nauseum is proposed as the best way to fuck with Google right now. It's an Ad Blocker of sorts, that sends false clicks to all ads. In other words, the company wonders why so many people are going to their website- and not buying shit.

Further, it screws their analytical data on you. Rather than being someone that consumes gaming content, likes these videos and music etc. You like everything. That doesn't fly with advertisers (and there has already been a case of a company suing Google over bots clicking ads and giving an inflated sense of what's going on).

WE HAVE A WAY TO DISNOD GOOGLE

> Find advertisers on Youtube.

> Send the embedded video, the BBC/Times article, or this article to a specific advertiser a'la weekly goals:

https://archive.is/yIgSs (archiving the times article does not give you the whole article. Not an issue if you send the original URL to advertisers- as you should).

https://www.hooktube.com/watch?v=uLYwoJtxi6k

https://archive.is/iApWS

That's it. That is literally it.

Either Youtube have to go comb through their database and get rid of those videos (which they won't since it gets them ad revenue and they can't even pull it off if they wanted), or Youtube lose all their biggest adverts.

 

It is so simple, it's like the early days of GamerGate.

So find out who still advertises on Youtube

Fuck it- maybe send it to all the big brands anyway. Odds are some of them must.

> Looks like YouTube may be demonetizing channels based on things like the comments

> "We can typically classify videos within 2 hours after upload, but bear in mind that a video's classification may change later based on how viewers engage with your video"

Obviously this leaves channels open to abuse (get spam bots to post "bad" comments and take the channel down).

Still need that list.

Thank you!!

Youtube are now claiming to fix the problem, but there's no reason not to pour gas on the fire.

More voices yelling at them will make them over-react or act to quickly.

We now need:

  • Contact info for each company.

  • Have weekly email goals.

  • DO IT.

The movie is called "The Disaster Artist".

 

If you're out of practice, PUBG removed a (nonexistant) camel toe from their game models. Email them and complain as it'll result in overreach from future complaints.

Message from an internet friend who does law:

> honestly the best way to hit them is to hit them where the copyright law hurts

> you start censoring stuff and doing takedowns?

> okay, that means everything you left up is something you chose to leave up

that means you're responsible for it

> no more DMCA Safe Harbor for you

> done

 

Of course, DisNod is our bread and butter. If anyone can build a plan from this- go for it.

Comments from main threads:

> That list of youtube advertisers in that thread is a list I made from clicking redlettermedia videos for like 5 minutes. We should really compile a much more comprehensive list than that. Also in emailing those advertisers what do we tell them to get them to pull out?

> Akkofag, do you remember what videos you were watching that had the more egregious advertisments on them? I think its important to also know what advertisments play on what videos for reference sake

 

> OPs aren't as thorough now, and yeah we need advertisers. A lot more. And if you can combine it with "problematic" videos- even better.

> Even if it's just those algorithm generated videos (SPIDERMAN AND ELSA USE FIDGET SPINNER VERY FUNNY) are bad since it's a low quality video next to their brand. Youtube also claims they're trying to get rid of pornagraphic videos- I'm sure you'll find something. Just don't send anything illegal dumb-ass, it's a confession you watched it.

> Low quality and controversial are what you want. Whether you send stuff that's actually controversial or you include what the left is outraged by nowadays is your choice- but the latter may shoot us in the foot by further reinforcing what they want.

> Tailor what you send based on the company. If the companies been on record as being left leaning- show them their ads on a channel that condemns the left or praises the right/Trump. On the other hand, if the channel is proudly right wing, show them their video on the latest rant by some tumblrite. Finally; think outside the box! A food commercial on a video about starvation in poor nations is probably gonna put people off the brand. A ad on going on safari in Africa won't look good on a video about riots in Africa. Most of the political topics have been de-monetized, but I'm sure some of the left leaning political channels have said dumb shit that no brand would want to be with.

> You don't have to be a fan of the video you're telling the advertiser about. Just say you saw it via a friend or colleague. However, you are a fan of their brand. Why would you write to them if you're not? Say how you like their product/service, and are concerned how this advert would look next to this video.

> How to write politely: http://library.bcu.ac.uk/learner/writingguides/1.06.htm

> Remember the golden rules: Emails Work- but quietly.

> No one wants to admit they're fixing a mistake if they can help it- since it's a confession of making that mistake in the first place. No one is going to say they pulled out, so keep your peepers peeled.

> And no one complains nowadays (hence why SJW made such great strides- we were silent and stopped buying/switched brands, they weren't and badgered until the company did what they wanted). So companies often feel if a person took time to complain, X others feel the same way and may have switched brands. The bigger the company, the greater that paranoia and fear.

 

> Well when we were targeting gawker and other slimy publication's advertisers it was easy since all you had to do was point out the shady shit they did. I wasn't sure what to do to make advertisers pull out of youtube as a whoel

 

> You're right that you can't get them to abandon youtube. But you can make it harder to use the service.

< Advertiser asks Google to make more exceptions to where their adverts appear.

< Google over does it by making it appear on stuff they think is problematic, not just the advertiser.

< The advert is seen less, and the advertiser is less keen to use Google as they don't get as much money.

> If the advertiser keeps getting complaints, then they get pissed Google keeps fucking up- putting their brand on "bad" videos.

> Eventually, the videos only end up on hard-left leaning content (since Google thinks it's safe and appropriate). People can complain about it being on white genocide videos and the like, and the advertiser complains again. The only other content left is neutral or right-leaning channels that try to remain a-political that just have fun, entertain, or inform… And Google hates that. They don't want the biggest channels on the website to be people not pushing their agenda. Not to mention most of them have been demonetized thanks to their earlier efforts.

> Do Google "re-monetize" those channels so advertisers have something to work on, or do they sheepishly apologize to the advertiser and struggle to find where to put their ad.

> At least that's one theory. No matter how it goes, the more pressure we apply to Google the better. Pressure makes fuck-ups and hasty decisions.
