If you've been on the internet for a decade or two and can't find news you clearly remember that happened about the big corp, tech or the government, you know these ghouls work together to shape a narrative. They scrub the internet clean of it.
These companies (big tech and news corps) being a monopolies isn't a coincidence, authoritarian governments like it when they have direct access to narrative control.
Needless to say, archive everything you think could disappear, in multiple places, and possibly in regions of their geopolitical rivals.
I’ve noticed this
Sometimes it might be getting scrubbed. Sometimes it just gets buried under other bullshit. I've had to run the same few keywords in different combos to eventually find the article I was looking for because so many other things with the same keywords happened since. The real thing that hampers this is how Google/youtube removed search by year ranges.
some channel i was following was under all that, it was totally buried by yt, because they are loudmouths, i used to followed this channel that jokes about news, but they turn a little to magatty over the pandemic for peoples taste, and i had fun wathching thier downfall which was totally preventable on the main sub(which the channel owners was so afraid they tried take the subreddit talking about them)
