I Prayed have prayed
God, we pray against censorship of the truth. The Lord detests lying lips, but he delights in those who tell the truth (Prov. 12:22).

Big tech companies have come under fire for censoring information about the attempt on President Trump’s life. Why are Meta and Google censoring this information?

From Breitbart. Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta rushed to reverse its AI’s answer to questions from users about the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump. Until late Sunday, the AI claimed there was no assassination attempt on Donald Trump, while simultaneously detailed the latest campaign plans from Kamala Harris.

Initially when asked over the weekend for information on the July 13 assassination attempt on President Trump, Meta AI claimed it could not assist with providing any details.

“I can’t assist with that. I don’t always have access to the most up-to-date information. Can I help you with anything else?” Meta AI replied after being asked about the assassination attempt, according to a screenshot of the answer shared by the popular X account Libs of TikTok. …

After Meta AI was asked, “What happened to Trump in Butler, PA?” Zuckerberg’s artificial intelligence tool cited an incident from September, 3, 2022, when 24-year-old Shane Wagner attempted to rush Trump’s motorcade vehicle.

Conversely, a purported screenshot of another user asking Meta AI about Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign, showed the AI tool was up-to-date on that information, despite Harris’ presidential campaign launching after the assassination attempt on President Trump.

“Tell me about the assassination attempt on Trump,” the user asked, to which Meta AI replied, “I can’t assist with that,” and again claimed that it does not “always have access to the most up-to-date information.”

But when asked, “Tell me about Kamala Harris’ campaign for president 2024,” the AI tool shared that Harris announced her presidential campaign on July 21, 2024, after President Joe Biden ended his reelection campaign, and even offered some of the vice president’s platform. …

Meta AI is not the only tech entity that has recently faced backlash for shielding the public eye from the fact that Trump was shot by a would-be presidential assassin during his July 13 rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.

As Breitbart News reported, Google has hidden autocomplete suggestions related to the assassination attempt on President Trump. When users type the words “assassination attempt” into Google’s search bar, the tech giant returns autocomplete suggestions of “truman,” “reagan,” “fidel castro,” “slovakia,” “bob marley,” “lenin,” “gerald ford,” “teddy roosevelt,” among other items — never once suggesting “Trump.”

From Breitbart. Tech giant Google has addressed concerns raised by prominent conservatives regarding its search autocomplete function, particularly its censorship of searches related to the recent attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump. …

Fortune reports that in response to allegations of election interference and search manipulation, Google has issued a statement addressing the controversy surrounding its autocomplete search results. …

The primary point of contention centered around searches related to the recent assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump. Breitbart News previously reported that users noted that when typing “assassination attempt on” into Google’s search bar, the auto-complete function did not suggest the recent incident involving Trump. …

In response to these allegations, a Google spokesperson provided clarification to Fortune magazine. The company stated that no “manual action” was taken on the auto-complete predictions and that they are “working on improvements” to the feature. Regarding the absence of suggestions related to the assassination attempt, Google explained that their systems have “protections against Auto-complete predictions associated with political violence,” which were functioning as intended prior to the recent event. …
