Unfortunately most people lack your great history-clearing opsec so they do get hit with that crap. It's not as bad as it used to be, Google has been making an effort, but it's still bad.
It can never be made cost efficient and safe, because there will always be unknown unknowns. That translates to risk and extremely high potential losses. No matter what you do, that will never change.
Meanwhile the alternatives are getting cheaper every day. The chances of nuclear ever catching up, even with free government-backed insurance to mitigate that risk, is zero.
PewDiePie is a well established alt-lite gateway. He was following a large number of alt-right people on YouTube until the terror attack, at which point he deleted them all. If it was nothing then why delete them?
Come on, you can't be that naive. He subscribes to all those alt-right channels, has some of them on as guests, uses their rhetoric and language in his own videos (claiming it's a joke) and then follows them into the same history-scrubbing panic once the terror attack hits.
Twitter is less than perfect. You use that as evidence that Twitter is involved in some kind of conspiracy to silence "the right", despite all the far right accounts they have thus far failed to ban.
In support of this you cite Joe Rogan, friend of Alex Jones and occasional guest on Infowars, known for his promotion of conspiracy theories and beliefs based on psychedelic drug use.
Is this really true? 8chan's traffic doesn't seem to be going up and I can't really see many people dissatisfied with Facebook but not already radicalized deciding that 8chan is a good alternative.
YouTube actually has that. You can click on the three little dots on the video and select "not interested", and then if you want there is a further option to "tell us why" which includes things like "not interested in X", "already seen this video", "not interested in this channel" and simply "didn't like this video".
It does kinda work, the main issue is that it's not available on all platforms. Web and mobile support it, smart TVs and Android TV don't.
I've seen his videos, that's exactly what he is saying.
I note that you don't actually state what he specifically is arguing. That's because you are not Jordan Peterson and not as good as him at avoiding being nailed down on specifics, and you know that if we get into this debate I'll push you until you can't avoid admitting it's what he is saying.
Amazon is a good example of where the system is working against the interests of the user. We need to educate people about that so that they understand that when Amazon suggests something it's not the same as Google trying to be helpful with search results, it's more like slimy sales staff trying to steer them towards the most profitable products.
It might be obvious to us but a lot of people don't seem to realize this.
The same is true of C programmers though, far too many of them don't understand the language and just hack stuff together to fulfil the contractual obligations and then disappear.
Contract work is a particular problems. There was a study recently, sorry I lost the link, where they put out contracts for a basic login page. Most of the developers didn't bother storing the password securely at first, then when asked managed to botch doing it. Contract work encourages minimum effort and throwing unsuitable libraries at problems, and often the person checking for completion doesn't understand the security issues.
By "censoring his manifesto so hard" presumably you it being readily available online and widely discussed and dissected in the evil Mainstream Media, right?
Muslims make up about 1% of citizens in New Zealand. In fact it's probably lower because people put down that their family members are Muslim on the census, but they aren't actually practising or believing in it.
Is the green aspect not simply because it's a massive economic opportunity to build new infrastructure not only in America but around the world with American tech? And an opportunity that so far Europe and China are leading on?
He's popular because he tells incels what they want to hear: it's not your fault, you really are owed sex and it's wrong for the world to deny it to you.
Then some vague stuff about promoting monogamy that he refuses to be pinned down on but basically means making women desperate to get a man, any man, and then never leave him.
Basically he's telling young guys that hot girls should dedicate themselves to pleasing them sexually. No wonder he's popular.
His manifesto is titled "The Great Replacement", after the conspiracy theory of the same name. The core idea is that a "global elite" are trying to destroy the white rate through a kind of genocide where they encourage non-white people to immigrate and breed with the white folk.
The fact that people on the left of the political spectrum support immigration and interracial relationships is just because they are unwittingly being manipulated by the global elite into thinking it's a good thing, via propaganda in the "Mainstream Media".
The goal is to make people on the left "wake up" and see that they are being lied to, and that their race is dying out, and to join the far right conspiracy theorists in attacking the global elite.
The answer to crazy conspiracy theories is not censorship. It is information.
The problem is that we are failing to counter this stuff with information. Can you suggest how we can do better, so this sort of thing stops happening?
Facebook and Google have tried presenting information when people view or search for this stuff, but found it largely ineffective. In fact Google found that many of the conspiracy theories incorporate a narrative that the truth is part of the conspiracy to deceive people, so facts sometimes just make the person more convinced of the lies.
The only thing that has been shown to really work (other than censorship) is de-radicalization, which usually involves starting on their terms and using their frame of reference to deconstruct their beliefs. Unfortunately due to moderation and/or being swamped on anonymous forums it's extremely difficult to do online.
His attack was directed at the U.S.
No, that is complete bollocks. His attack was similar to Anders Brevik's, designed to make people "wake up" to the "great replacement" white genocide. He said he expected to be seen the same way as Nelson Mandella, a terrorist on the right side of history and eventually released from jail when people realize his claims are all true. Part of the point of killing so many people was to make it nearly impossible to ignore and censor his message, since that what he believed was stopping people taking action against the Jews behind the "great replacement".
We should seriously consider if Infowars and Fox News bare any responsibility. They get away with it by not directly inciting violence but instead spending years and years promoting conspiracies in the guise of "news" and ramping up hatred of certain groups (usually immigrants and "the left").
Their favourite trick is talking about how all these awful things will surely drive someone to violence eventually, which obviously they don't condone wink wink but the race war uprising will definitely start any day now so be prepared!
It's very difficult to deal with because it's rare for there to be a direct link or any solid evidence. And even when there is, like the Christchurch terrorist, those responsible can (probably legitimately) say they never intended it to justify violence and it's all the other radicalization on 8chan that should take the blame.
Facebook actively fights attempts to radicalize its users. 8chan actively promotes it, opening new boards and creating FAQs/sticky posts to assist.
You can argue that Facebook is really bad at what it attempts to do and I wouldn't argue, but never the less there is a reason why the Christchurch terrorist favoured 8chan.

Textbook example of a shitty conspiracy theory.

Maths makes sense because it is an abbreviation of mathematics, which also ends in an 's'. In fact there is no such word as "mathematic".
My description is accurate. Anyone can check.
YouTube actually has that. You can click on the three little dots on the video and select "not interested", and then if you want there is a further option to "tell us why" which includes things like "not interested in X", "already seen this video", "not interested in this channel" and simply "didn't like this video".

If those payoffs are not a crime them how come Cohen was convicted and went to jail for them?

It's a core part of the Great Replacement conspiracy theory. The "Global Elite" is just code for Jews.
Or someone smart enough to just point the camera at another phone playing a video of someone's attentive face.

So what about the other crimes, like breaking campaign finance laws by paying off porn stars he slept with?
Good point, I never thought of using avrdude. I see you can write Arduino code in Atmel Studio but I have not tried it.
It's not a left/right war he wants.

you can get them to do damn near anything.
Or better yet give you money to do damn near anything.
