neo-Nazi website, Daily Stormer, progressive left-leaning sites are losing Google ranking and traffic because of a deliberate move to censor \u201cfake\u201d news by the internet search giant.<\/p>\n<p class=\"selectionShareable\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsws.org\/en\/articles\/2017\/08\/02\/pers-a02.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">New data released by World Socialist Websites<\/a> (WSWS) revealed that sites such as Wikileaks, The Intercept, Electronic Frontiers Foundation, the American Civil Liberties Organisation, CounterPunch and many other organisations with the audacity to provide context about the activities of federal governments not reported in mainstream publications have experienced a significant drop in traffic after Google altered its algorithm.<\/p>\n<p class=\"selectionShareable\">(WSWS is an online news and information service founded by the International Committee of the Fourth International, the leadership of the world socialist movement).<\/p>\n<p class=\"selectionShareable\">Earlier this week, internet hosting provider,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2017\/8\/15\/16150668\/daily-stormer-alt-right-dark-web-site-godaddy-google-ban\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GoDaddy, announced it had cancelled US neo-Nazi website, Daily Stormer<\/a>, for posting an attack on Heather Heyer, the protester who was murdered at the Klan rally in Charlottesville last week. <a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2017\/08\/16\/digital-ocean-and-cloudflare-ditch-neo-nazi-client-the-daily-stormer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Google and CloudFlare likewise cancelled its registration<\/a> after the site tried to move its hosting over to their respective services.<\/p>\n<p class=\"selectionShareable\">But while these hosting services are being congratulated by some \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eff.org\/deeplinks\/2017\/08\/fighting-neo-nazis-future-free-expression\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">and condemned by others on free-speech grounds<\/a> \u2013 for ensuring that those looking to commit violence have to work slightly harder to get access to their like-minded Nazi communities, those who own the means of transmission \u2013 namely Google, Facebook and Twitter \u2013 are still preventing the rest of us from accessing information that allows people to make sense of the world around us.<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;click on the above link to read the
