Do monopolies lead to censorship? If one company owns the information, can they restrict access to that knowledge? If the restriction is based on race, color, religion, sex or national origin, the answer is no; however, there is no restriction on censoring based on political beliefs. When it comes to politics, companies are free to discriminate as they see fit--the only potential blowback is via capitalism. Should enough people rally-up in arms, then the almighty dollar can force change. However, if it is the communication channels people use to disseminate knowledge that’s being monopolized, can people build enough traction to create a movement? Today’s we’ll explore the history of how we got to this point and then talk with Craig Stadler; and enterprising entrepreneur who is taking it to google with hopes of disrupting the censorship trend.
Craig Stadler owns Peteyvid.com, a video search engine of his creation that is taking on Google's censorship and providing a valuable service to internet searchers.
