HPANWO Safari Warning

 
Safari is the principle web browser for Apple devices and it is on my mobile phone just like it is for millions of people all over the world. Like most social media content creators, I occasionally indulge in ego-surfing. There's a serious motive for this; basically it's to check for the problem I've just found. When searching for my own pages on Safari I found that HPANWO TV comes with a warning. At the top of the search results page are the following words: "It looks like there aren't many great results for this search. The results below match your search terms, but some of them may not have reliable information on this topic. Check the source; are they trusted on this topic?" There is also a learn more tab which links to a long lecture on "misinformation". So far HPANWO TV is the only HPANWO page which is affected. (The HPWA doesn't even appear. All you get are hundreds of hits for the Hispanic Professional Women's Association!) Readers can try this out for themselves and see if the same thing happens. Results may vary depending on your settings or where you live in the world. Once again we are reminded that, despite what Richard Hoagland says, Google is not your friend. Along with other examples that I'll link in the background below to do with my posts disappearing and my viewing figures mysteriously dropping, it is pretty clear that my card is marked. This is of course, unacceptable behaviour by internet controllers and anathema to any kind of free and peaceful society.

  1. Hi Ben,
    It's the search engine rather than the browser. I've tried searching HPANWO TV using Yahoo (yes it still exists!), bing and duckduckgo and you are prominently placed in all those results. ;)
