Pook-Emu Bee: Links For 05-27-26
I have a busy day ahead of me, but not too busy for Pook-Emu Bee links. Before getting to links from around the web, I note that I just published the sixth and final part of my New Leaf Journal sixth birthday project, Be the Blogger You Want to Be (Or Read). Now watch me follow my own advice. 1. Government says 5.7 trillion yen of Japanese media was pirated last year, thinks AI could help (Casey Baseel for SoraNews24. May 26, 2026.) I assumed by "AI could help" that the Japanese government […]https://social.emucafe.org/naferrell/pook-emu-bee-links-for-05-27-26/

So, is #DuckDuckGo now using AI to rewrite preview text for #Wikipedia pages?
If I search e.g. for "Bob Dylan", the preview for WIkipedia on #Google and #Bing is the start of the Wikipedia page.
DDG has replaced it with generic "Learn about ..." text that does not appear in the HTML. The same happens with other searches for prominent people. I haven't explored further.

I often hold back on disclosing privacy tips because privacy advocates are so far outnumbered that it seems more likely that privacy adversaries will take action to thwart or shut down the angle / hack or facility.
Among the tiny demographic of privacy proponents almost none of them are committed to privacy. Trapped in the #TyrannyOfConvenience as articulated by Tim Wu. A majority of the so called pro-privacy crowd are ppl that complain as they login to Facebook (and make excuses for using it) ... or they blindly accept deceiving & compromised privacy theatre tools so long as they don’t require a change of habit. E.g. brainwashed to think #DuckDuckGo is aligned with the privacy movement. No, #DDG is just exploiting fools.
The sad state of it is evident simply by stepping into a #threadiverse c/privacy community, where a majority of posts come from accounts hosted on nodes like #lemmyWorld & #shItjustWorks even if the community itself is on a defederated node.
It’s hard to imagine privacy movements making much progress when the orgs that claim to have a privacy mission will litter their site with FB and Twitter then reverse proxy it through CF.

I guess... it's time to find another #privacy focussed search engine?
Any suggestions?

Sono passati letteralmente mesi e quella schifezza di #Google ancora indicizza malissimo il #sitoctt, #Bing un po' meglio ma comunque indecente, per qualche motivo #DuckDuckGo funziona correttamente. Sto quasi pensando o di creare un mirror 1:1 #Wordpress, o di mettere i nuovi post anche sul mio vecchio blog #noblogo (sempre come copia 1:1)
#SEO (che non funziona) -
