This chilling account by Google whistleblower Zach Vorhies reveals the company's alarming descent into censorship and political manipulation, particularly following the 2016 election of Donald Trump. As a senior engineer, Vorhies witnessed firsthand how Google's corporate values began to dictate reality, undermining the American ideal of open discourse and collaboration. The tech industry, once celebrated for its innovation, transformed into a "woke-church" that stifled free speech and suppressed diverse viewpoints. Vorhies, influenced by dystopian literature, recognized Google's efforts to rewrite the code of reality, effectively excluding many from participation. He uncovered an internal system called "Machine Learning Fairness," which he argues merges critical race theory with AI, impacting users across search, news, and YouTube. In 2019, he released 950 pages of documents to the Department of Justice and the public through Project Veritas, igniting a significant whistleblowing movement. The authors detail how Google manipulated news algorithms to target Trump and exploited emergencies to enforce permanent blacklists. They conclude with strategies to combat censorship, making this a crucial read for anyone concerned about the manipulation of information and the suppression of voices in the digital age.
