Removing Google as a verb

An issue we face with google which is very prominent in language, is that people use the phrase 'google it' with regularity when told to research something.

What are effective alternatives to stop this phenomenon?

We need to help purge it from regular vernacular and replace it with something that would flow as 'google it' does.

Then once the best verb(s) is discovered, there needs to be propaganda stating the privacy violations google does with regularity and in order to combat that: we need to remove them from the verb status they have acquired.

i dont know man, try googling it

whenever you fucker stop calling facial tissues (((Kleenex))) or carbonated drink (((coke))) then we can talk about this
fuck off Bing employee

>Then once the best verb(s) is discovered
We will never know unless we Google it.

Nobody says 'Bing it' or ever will, it doesn't need to be search engine specific. It just simply needs to remove the power Google has gained as being the majority share phrase when being told to research something.

> You still use Google, user?
Ridicule their support of corporate fascism.

"read several primary sources which you may find by sifting through citations" oh wait thats more work than reading some internet articles on websites that already support your view

When is Sup Forums going to stop using jewgle captcha tracking?

We are switching the word Google with Nigger. "It's all true my Google, Nigger it.

Google wants it to stop being a verb, idiot. If it falls too far into common usage, the government can rule that the word has outgrown them and anyone is free to use the verb. It happened to Refrigerator brand cooling units.

False, they won that case against them.

>ripl.jmls.edu/2017/07/20/a-final-victory-for-google-verb-use-does-not-signify-trademark-genericide/

Jewgle it.

Do the same thing we did with Pepe.
Turn google into our next Alt-right (hate symbol).
Make the word google and their logo so toxic that the left turns on it.

The case ruled that the word still referred to Google more often than it didn't, so Google was able to keep it. It will probably be retried again eventually to see if the circumstances have changed. Lego has had to defend their brand name many, many times.

Which could be in how many years and lobbying makes this so unlikely to transpire. Isn't our goal to shrivel their numbers and then give rise to alternatives?

I don't like the idea of banking on something that may or may not happen, opposed to something we may have more control over. With this method if successful, it could lead to others telling someone to use 'this' instead of google and then to not say google it. Then they tell 1 person, they tell 1 person and so on.

Do you have any proposition on how to do this, are you proposing images of beheaded people and google over their faces telling them to silence themselves or what's in mind?

"Educate yourself shitlord"

Sup Forums had a shortlived thing a while back where we called black people Googles in hopes that people would turn against the word. It never really took off, but we got some laughs when news outlets reported on it.

I say bing it all the time. I get a kick out of it because no one knows what I mean.. then I explain it and we laugh and t becomes a joke. So now I have my coworkers saying "lets bing it!" And unironically using bing.

no one uses 'coke' as a general term like that

(checked)
>What are effective alternatives to stop this phenomenon?
Call out every faggot you see shilling for it. They should be mocked and made an example of for shilling a company as disgusting as (((Jewgle))). This was a marketing ploy from the early 2000s. End it.

Google usually has the most accurate results. Bing is gay, and Yahoo is only good for porn.

just replace google with nigger?

>"How long do I microwave the egg to hardboil it?"
>"I don't know, did you Nigger™ it?"

"search it" "internet it" "look it up"

>t. yankee

No. We don't want to give the impression that we hate google. We want people to think that we and other bigots identify with google.

Start making memes celebrating nazis and white power and use the google logo to replace the swastika.

Or better yet use google as the new symbol of discrimination against women. Capitalize on the latest controversy, fan the flames. Make it seem like google really does discriminate against women and minorities and the alt-right loves it and praises google for it.

It only worked doing it on the way around.

I already say "search for it online" instead.

Don't use g**gle their captcha service is used on the hatespeech factory of the internet!

I call it Schmoogle

The reason Google isn't a genericized verb is because people only use it to refer to Google.

Nobody says "I googled it on bing" or shit like that.

You make a great point, you need to call them out and shame them whenever someone says 'google it' as they are giving power to a corrupt entity that doesn't believe in freedom of information and sells your private information with regularity.

I have started evaluating myself before I go to sleep based on how many times I used google instead of the alternatives
to be fair most of the time the other search engines are good enough

"Search it", "Look it up", whatever you say
DO NOT SAY
"Google it"

Whenever you hear someone say "Google it" it is your duty to correct them as they are feeding an entity that sells your private information[1] and doesn't believe in freedom of information[2].

[1][2] sources pointing at it occurring, numerous times on a large scale.

Then somewhere on the image showing search engines that do not violate the same wrongs google perpetuates.

----

Rough draft of what I think the image should look like, thanks for the help brainstorming guys.

I don't think this is a real problem. Maybe in some years we will say "just Firefox it" instead of "just Google it"; is that really a problem?

Nice attempt shill.

This thread covers a completely separate issue at hand compared to that thread. I strongly advise you review both threads and recognize that while they have the same interests, are not the same topic and discussion being held.

I am in tech. We do go out, we do go to bars, have dinner with friends, do physical activity. In fact, we do it in style.
I don't LARP, I don't watch anime or read comics. I do play some online games on my PC, with my wife. I am nearly 50 and me wife is in late 20's, former model now techie. Finncially secure, I own a maserati among 3 other cars. Multiple vacationa a year, dozens of concerts including meeting the talent. I can have tats, wear shorts to the office (which I usually work at home save a day or two I go in for meetings). I can speak freely and curse/swear in meetings. I get all kinds of silly perks like office going to new movie releases or an entire day the whole office goes to volunteer at a food bank. We have a cyclist club for people that cycle into work or do competitive practice at lunch. I don't have set hours. Food regularly paid for, at minimum on wed and Firday. Mandatory 2 trips a year to go to conventions and training (Usually LA/LAs Vegas/New York) - and I get to pick which ones I personally want - all expenses paid (bring wife along). No I'm not a neckbeard and I am not the exception either. When I was single I was never without a date when I wanted

bing is best for porn

You need to make it a funny insult. Change the meaning to "small dick" or "the act of splashing piss on yourself when you shake off at the urinal."

ever considered writing a blog?

Tldr for cheesy pasta

i always say just "Look online"

"duck it"

crawl it
is so asks, have spoken pasta on web search ready

its called goolag now, grandpa

>t.nobody

yes, it is exactly the problem.
think harder.

>t.cuck

Kek. FPBP.
Removing google as a verb is tottaly out of reach. There's gotta be another way of fighting back against google.

...

I remember I was giving a presentation at some anime con and someone from the crowd stopped me to coplain thay I used Google as a verb.


>Coke
>not Dr. Pepper

>i always say just "Look online"
this. and laugh at spergs using the name of a brand as verb and call them capitalists if they are commies and SJWs when they are right

The only meaningful attack against Google would be if Russian and/or Chinese search engines became more user friendly.

We have to give our personal data to someone. It's better to split up who receives each part of it.

It doesn't matter.
'Google it' may as well be part of the English language now. It just means search the web for it.
Changing peoples default search engine is key. They can still 'google it' using startpage.
If a normie used my comp they'd be joogle free and wouldn't even know it

This. We need to pressure browsers to actively degoogle as a default as well.

The most promising dev team for this would be Brave. Another would be Firefox, but Mozilla is pretty cucked so you'd have to propose it as a privacy initiative.

I personally think that DuckDuckGo has the most potential to replace google. It's good enough as a search engine and has enough name recognition to viably replace Google as the industry standard. Plus it has the "does not track" you rhetoric already in place so you can poise it as more privacy conscious.

Yandex is another good one. It's Russian and has webmail services like gmail as well. The Russian thing is a downside for most people after all this Russian hacker shit though.

Thoughts? I'd like to hear suggestions.

definitely that is a good idea. we could easily make this a thing now, we have momentum and more genius level autism brain power. i would venture into replacing "Jew" with Goog, or Google. the Googles are out to destroy the world. You mean Google? no I mean Jews. replace usage of word Jew with Google, it's run by Jews anyway.

I definitely like the idea of tarnishing the actual name of "Google" that will do wonders. In both exposing the Googles designs, and in destroying Google.

If I read Brave as the (((best))) ever again, I will start using chrome again. Fucking shill devs, shilling their half baked shit

yea i have switched all over now to Bing only. i was using ddgo, but thats owned by a Goog so have to use Bing. i tried searme but the image search is shit. it only shows 200x200 thumbs, and you have to click into the original to get actual size. thats a bitch.

I think Bing is the choice now. Bing it sounds WAY better and easier than DDGo it. fuck DDgo. Bing it Bitch. lets Bing these (((Googs))) down

Rough draft, I'm not the greatest image creator, but suggestions?

In the blank space I intend to add approved search engines and then sources.

They actually don't want people to use the phrase google it or googling. They want people to say Google search.

The nice thing about fox is the ease of transition from chrome. Think of it as a stepping stone.
I feel startpage is the best search. It's privacy focused above all else and it uses joogles results.
The main problem I had when I ditched joogle as a search engine was crappy search results.
Startpage fixes this beautifully.

Guys should also look at weening of joutube.
All your favorite channels are already uploading to 'vidme'. I'm liking it so far.

Startpage literally has a label right beside the Search box that says "Enhanced by GOOGLE"....this search should NOT be adopted whatsoever imo. it's just Google Light. we want as far away from GOOGLE as we can be. and I read that Bing's owner kills Africans with vaccines or something so. theres that

Book-look it.

yes it uses googles results by proxy, it's currently the best solution

We need a competitive search engine. Hell, I don't even care if it's a search engine company, is there ANY company in the US that has figured out how to get away with the opposite angle of the kind of SJW bullshit firing that all these other companies somehow manage to? Could that even be considered a win, since it's still bullshit firing?

Google = nigger

We did it a few months ago

I propose the word "poo".

>how do I make a fruitcake, user?
>"I don't know, did you try pooing it?"

>poo
>India
>pooing it

>88
>Noice
Make "bing" the new verb, just because bing is so fucking awful and it will be hilarious.

FUCKDUCKGO IT!

fuck off

boy did you shat out a surprise

To "google" something means to infect it with Marxism and forced diversity. Make sense? I don't think there's an equivalent word except maybe "poz"

"Look it up"

I wish we wouldn't conflate censorship by force with censorship by contract. Governments are fundamentally different from businesses.

10/10

>ancap doesn't wholeheartedly agree with a distinction between aggressive policy and voluntary contract

>How do I make Nazi Salutes?
Google it. Maybe find as many negative search results as possible? Although, at this point it may be harder to do since they're already fudging search results.
>I say 'look it up' instead of 'jewgle it'

Better?

This...this isn't too bad.

Friendly reminder that if you're a person who respects their individual privacy and freedom, there is no reason to be using the products created by the botnet that is the Google company.
There is a plethora of options available for you to replace your Google apps that are lighter, faster and better in general, including respect for freedom and privacy.

thank you based bimodal doodle bot

Near final draft, any revision suggestions

Tasty. I'll repost this when possible after you fix the bottom left.

Maybe put a border around the top half to contain all the empty white space.

You need to add a good mobile browser like Dolphin

...

>People actually think DuckDuckGo is a good alternative

Next you're gonna tell me GoDaddy is okay?

bing?

What do you approve then.

Every other alternative listed was fine. Shit, even Firefox is better. DuckDuckGo originally advertised on Sup Forums to be "one of us" like a Jew saying he's one of the goys.

Remove DuckDuckGo from the list and you're fine.

Do you have hard evidence or just speculative evidence.

I just know ddg would be good on there due to it's more known than the others and would be more likely for people to adopt.

I had evidence before. Here's some information for Qwant.

>From 2011 to 2014 Qwant acquired a total funding of €3.5 million, part of it a loan. It was aided in its operation by special tax breaks form the French Government. In 2014 it received additional funding, including a €6 million investment from Axel Springer Digital Ventures in return for a 20% stake in the company

Here's the front of Alex Springer office. Notice something?

The fact that DuckDuckGo openly advertises that they supposedly don't track people like google is fishy enough. It's kind of a Trojan horse tactic.

Y-you mad ?
