GG recently discovered Google Ideas invited some of the literal whos and other various loud-mouth rainbow hairs from Twatter to talk about how they are so incredibly oppressed as proud womyn on the Internet. Needless to say the sheer hypocrisy has sparked a huge backlash focused in the hashtag #GoogleAbuse.

But that's not why I'm here.

The hypocrisy on display here is fucking chump change compared to the head of Google Ideas, Jared Cohen. This guy worked as a senior adviser to Condoleezza Rice and Hilary Clinton during their stints at the State Department. He played a big part in overseeing the old neocon "spreading freedom and democracy" schtick. Google hired him to lead their "think-/do-tank" Google Ideas. Armed with Washington connections and the backing of a Silicon Valley monolith, nothing but bad things come to mind. Here's an excerpt from a news article that cites documents from the Manning leaks to give you an idea of how big of a deal this is.

>In turn, Burton replied, “Cohen’s rabbi is Eric Schmidt and Obama lackey. My source is trying to find out if the billionaire owners are backing Cohen’s efforts for regime change.” (doc-id 1111729)

>Later on, Burton forwarded information from the “Google source” of Cohen’s links in establishing Movements.org. The source added, “A site created to help online organization of groups and individuals to move democracy in stubborn nations. Funded through public-private partnerships.” Burton pointed out that the US State Department is the organization’s public sponsor.” (doc-id 1118344)

>Indeed, the State Department, partnering with a number of corporations, was the main sponsor for the 2008 inaugural Alliance of Youth Movements summit in New York City that subsequently established Movements.org. Hillary Clinton endorsed the organization and presented a video message during the second summit held in Mexico City a year later.

>On 11 February, Burton wrote to the secure email list that Cohen was still planning to head to Gaza. He added, “The dude is a loose can[n]on. GOOGLE is trying to stop his entry into Gaza now because the dude is like scorched earth. It’s unclear to GOOGLE if he’s driving without a license, but GOOGLE believes he’s on a specific mission of “regime change” on the part of leftist fools inside the WH who are using him for their agendas.” (doc-id 1113596)

I have included Julian Assange's book about a meeting between him and Google's CEO Eric Schmidt. I haven't finished reading it but it details their competing philosophies. As you can imagine, Schmidt and Cohen see eye-to-eye.

So my challenge to you is to dig up anything damning you can find about Cohen, Schmidt, or Google Ideas. Once you find quotes, package them in bite-sized screenshots or infographics ready for distribution on #GoogleAbuse. Think people are mad now? Rainbow-haired she-twinks are small fries compared to North African and Middle Eastern "regime change".

This might be a bit helpful

>“THE New Digital Age” is a startlingly clear and provocative blueprint for technocratic imperialism, from two of its leading witch doctors, Eric Schmidt and Jared Cohen, who construct a new idiom for United States global power in the 21st century. This idiom reflects the ever closer union between the State Department and Silicon Valley, as personified by Mr. Schmidt, the executive chairman of Google, and Mr. Cohen, a former adviser to Condoleezza Rice and Hillary Clinton who is now director of Google Ideas.

Though since this article was written, Jared has become the director

let me try to summarize this. This whole thing is basically Jared and Eron meeting in occupied Baghdad and having wet dreams about technological subversion of privacy in America and across the world, on a global scale.

By expanding the reach of their own technology and means of communication, Google also expands the reach of the U.S. government into pretty every place in the world except China.

Also, things like requiring your social media accounts to be tied to your real name was all Google's idea.

the book itself is a look into the minds encouraging technological subversion on a global scale

Don't want to derail you trail of bread crumps, just put some extra info, ingore me if u can:

"Google reported operating 25 subsidiaries

in tax havens in 2009, but since 2010

only discloses two, both in Ireland. During

that period, it increased the amount of cash

it reported offshore from $7.7 billion to

$38.9 billion. An academic analysis found

that as of 2012, the 23 no-longer-disclosed

tax haven subsidiaries were still operating. "

Google uses accounting techniques nicknamed

the “double Irish” and the “Dutch

sandwich,” according to a Bloomberg investigation.

Using two Irish subsidiaries,

one of which is headquartered in Bermuda,

Google shifts profits through Ireland and

the Netherlands to Bermuda, shrinking its

tax bill by approximately $2 billion a year.34"

"With regard to CSR theory (corporate social responsibility), the paper shows how organisational legitimacy is the result of a complex interaction between strategic legitimacy efforts by OFC‐based (offshore finance centres) companies and isomorphic processes in the wider social system. In terms of CSR practice, the paper argues that claims to acting socially responsibly by firms that do not even fully meet their economic responsibilities to society may, in the longer term, undermine the very idea of CSR."

>10. (C) Embassy also recommends pursuing large-scale education and English-language initiatives as the most effective means of countering radicalization in Algeria, wherever the door is open to such programs. During October 7 meetings with Jared Cohen of the State Department's Policy Planning Office, for example, the Algerian Secretary Generals of the Ministries of Higher and National Education responded favorably to an initial "Teach for Algeria" proposal that seeks to export the success of Teach for America. Education administrators report heavy demand among students for English classes because young people - and our business sector contacts - think that command of English gives a young Algerian a far better chance of finding a job. Finally, by continuing to promote economic and political reform wherever opportunities exist within Algeria, the Embassy can help address the root causes of disenchantment and radicalization, although the GOA must recognize this as the true front line by taking concrete and visible steps of its own.

I suspect that Cohen may be recuiting the literally whos as assets for social media ops.

"Online harassment" may be the new "hate speech:" an easily redefined and marketable justification for social media manipulation and censorship.

If an agency wanted an excuse to ban or censor a target, the LW's can incite or fabricate "harassment," and then incite their mobs to scream for protection. This could be very useful for googleideas.

this definitely feels like a gateway to push some kind of future software or at the very least, awareness

I really hope this isn't some ploy for technological subversion through social media

When you think about it this is the first time these government-corporate assholes have scored a victory against us

Ever since the internet appeared they been getting fucked by leaks they couldn't contain like they did when TV is all there was

I'm guessing these assholes just want to see how far they can take this sexism bullshit that sort of worked against GG

It took them over a decade but they finally managed to find a way to get back at us

What we need to do now is find a way to counter this and continue to operate while they remain oblivious to our actions
