Google completed a major revision of its search engine that sharply curtails public access to Internet web sites that operate independently of the corporate and state-controlled media.

Ben Gomes, Google’s chief search engineer, rolled out the new censorship program in a statement bearing the Orwellian title, “Our latest quality improvements for search.”

user feedback mechanisms were designed to “include clearly labelled categories so you can inform us directly if you find sensitive or unhelpful content”. Results would allow Google to change the way pages were ranked in search results.

Regarding the changes to its search algorithm, Gomes added: “We’ve adjusted our signals to help surface more authoritative pages and demote low-quality content

Facebook announced that it intends to start prioritizing “meaningful conversations’ instead of news articles.

Twitter is killing automation on the platform meaning any bots that create fake engagement via likes, follows or retweets will be quashed.

LinkedIn is prioritizing status updates by its professional users who dare to be more personal and open about their lives.

In Zuckerberg’s post, he outlines a new direction for Facebook with the algorithm at the centre of it. “We’re making a major change to how we build Facebook. I’m changing the goal I give our product teams from focusing on helping you find relevant content to helping you have more meaningful social interactions.”

This means the algorithm will now prioritize content that drives discussions among friends and family as opposed to clickbait and links to third-party sites.
