Thank you for highlighting my short context setter for Jonathan Engler’s article posted in my Telegram channel.

Other than the space below Substack articles, my solo channel on Telegram is the only place online that I’ve found where I can comment freely under my own name.

If I write anywhere else, comments are generally deleted, often as fast as I post them.

I’ve worked every day for over four years, pro bono, and recognize that huge efforts have been made & continue to minimise the number of new people that I can reach.

This has extended even to altering the results of something as dull as search. Many people don’t think about search at all & if they do, they usually agree with the statement that “search is a more or less generic process & it makes no substantial difference which browser you use”.

Unfortunately nothing can be further from the truth.

A two minute exercise will illustrate my point. Try putting “Dr Mike Yeadon” into a major search engine like Google or Safari.

Compare the results with those using the same search term in minority browsers like Mojeek or Yandex.

I put it the reader that there is a reason why search is so obviously skewed. Those with power are very keen to minimise my reach. I further suggest that this is being done because my output is kryptonite to their mendacious narrative.
