‘It’s a reality:’ Google threatens to stop search in Australia due to media code
The owner of Australia’s most popular search engine says it is prepared to shut the service down rather than pay media organisations for news content.
The $1.8 trillion search giant’s local managing director Melanie Silva told a Senate committee hearing on Friday that Google would shut off search in Australia if the government’s proposed media bargaining code becomes law. Experts said the threat is not idle, with Google likely fearful the code could set a global precedent.
Their statements need to be broadcast in full reverb.
You you you will will will obey obey obey.
Or else fall into the Pit of Oblivion.
