Uncover the hidden systems created by the most powerful tech companies in the world that are determined to stop Donald Trump.

Journalist Allum Bokhari has spent four years investigating the tech giants that dominate the Internet: Google, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter. He has discovered a dark plot to seize control of the flow of information, and utilize that power to its full extent—to censor, manipulate, and ultimately sway the outcome of democratic elections. His network of whistleblowers inside Google, Facebook and other companies explain how the tech giants now see themselves as "good censors," benevolent commissars controlling the information we receive to "protect" us from "dangerous" speech.

They reveal secret methods to covertly manipulate online information without us ever being aware of it, explaining how tech companies can use big data to target undecided voters. They lift the lid on a plot four years in the making—a plot to use the power of technology to stop Donald Trump's re-election.

Very important topic

Reviewed in the United States on September 23, 2020

Verified Purchase

I cannot overstate the importance of this topic. Cancel culture and censorship is a very dangerous ideology that is being used to manipulate you. It disturbs me that people so readily embrace it. In fact, if I bring up a topic that is critical of the left, I get bombarded with people explaining to me how my news is fake and theirs isn't. It's reached absurd proportions now. It's even driving crime and other serious political consequences. Google, Facebook, and Twitter need to get out of politics. We need legislation to fix that. Corporations do no answer to the people. That is pretty obvious. Even more obvious after reading this book.

Well written. I recommend it. Everyone should read this. Especially if you are one of those telling everyone their news is fake when in fact, it's your news that is fake.

Rivoting and Well-written

Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2020

Verified Purchase

The author had me hooked from Chapter One, and I couldn't put it down. The concept behind the book is well-relayed right away, with the idea of the phone company or the Post Office refusing to provide service simply because you don't agree with their politics. Something most of us would find unimaginable. Yet the same censorship happens every day with Big Tech. And sure, I'd always heard about Fact Checkers and such, but I had no idea the lengths that Big Tech goes to silence those who don't agree with them. Plus, I had no idea the numbers of people who had been censored. It's scary, considering that yes, censorship happened in both Nazi Germany and Communist Russia. It is terribly damaging to a free society. This is a subject that should be of concern to all Americans, regardless of your political leanings. I highly recommend this book.

Regardless of your political affiliation, if you care about freedom, privacy, and personal choice, you need to read this book. Even Trump-hating lefties can learn how your future is about to be determined for you regardless of your politics. Be alarmed, and the do something while there is still time.

Disturbingly Accurate

Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2020

The book was lent to me by a friend as I was somewhat skeptical of its premise. The concept of big tech being very powerful with respect to information content control was not new to me but the level of control is troubling. A bit into the book I ran the title through Google, Bing and Duck Duck Go and the results with respect to Google verified the book’s claims.

BUY THIS BOOK !!! Highly recommend!!! A real opener,, Great book. Gives insight to behind the scenes regarding tech companies shape the reality they want to present as the new normal including censorship of thoughts that don’t meet how the want you to think. From what the want you to buy to what thoughts they are driving into Americans. Also covering loss of freedoms of speech and thought that is on the verge of for ever being lost. The internet promised to be a platform for diversification of thought.
The author explains how this has changed and will further spiral out of control.

The most important book of our time

Reviewed in the United States on October 29, 2020

Verified Purchase

It is remarkable that despite a profusion of technology and newfound ease of communication we have entered an intellectual dark age.

Internet giants such as Facebook, Google, Google subsidiary YouTube and Wikipedia have been intensively censoring conservative views for years, especially after the 2016 election. These companies have a near-monopoly share of communications in their respective spaces and have used this power to dramatically reduce the reach of viewpoints that are disfavored by the left.

This book documents with numerous examples the shocking extent to which conservative views are censored and especially the ways that censorship occurs under the guise of neutrality. While many conservative speakers have been banned outright, often without explanation, far more conservative speakers and outlets have been reduced in influence through shadow bans and derankings by Orwellian 'safety teams' composed almost entirely of leftists.

The left prides itself as the party of science and it is true that more scientists and tech people are on the left. But censoring views you don’t like is the most anti-intellectual and anti-scientific practice that there is and big tech is at the forefront of this censorship. Where the left wing used to be the champions of free speech, suddenly they are widely against it.

The principle of that the clash of opposing views is the way to truth, recognized since the time of Socrates, has been apparently been discarded. Many things that are true are hard to take, but must be faced, if we are to make good decisions, both individually and collectively. In this context, the left’s turn toward censorship, carried out primarily though big tech, is a historic catastrophe.

Interesting & easy read

A highly credible but very disturbing book. Read this soon if you care about your freedom of speech!

Reviewed in Canada on October 19, 2020

Verified Purchase

What I like about this book is that it's easy to read, well-researched, and very interesting. But what I find disturbing is how pervasive and effective big-tech censorship really is. This is truly frightening, because our freedom of speech and democracy are at stake. Our elections are being manipulated by high-tech elites who lust for power and control, and who have no respect for our democracy. These Big Tech tyrants are suppressing any news or opinions that they disagree with. And their censorship is making it very hard to warn the general public of the danger we are all facing. Consequently, most people just don't realize they are being deceived with half-truths and outright lies. Meanwhile, more and more conservative commentators are being permanently banned from Twitter, Youtube, and Facebook. And Google search results are too often hiding conservative viewpoints.

So what can you do? Start by reading this book, so you can understand the dire challenge we are facing. Then, no matter what country you live in, spread the word, participate in your democracy, and try to help the best candidates win.

You will never use the internet the same after reading #Deleted

Reviewed in Canada on November 20, 2020

Verified Purchase

I would give this six stars if I could!
As a white male senior, I have been pushed into the margins of the internet. I have been deleted. I had believed that this was an organic process but now I understand that evil, Machiavellian forces have been attacking me. The reasons, the facts and the history of the internet cabal have been laid bare in this book. Author Allum Bokhari calls the high tech monopolies “most powerful mind control engine ever created”.
The upside of this exposure of Google’s “The Good Censor report of 2018” is that the battle lines have been drawn. All of us Deplorables and Smelly Walmart Shoppers no longer need to take their attacks personally. We know that we are in the fight for freedom and that the mob is winning. But this book has shown a path to victory.
All who are interested and have the courage to fight will read #Deleted and join the real patriots in the war to save Western Civilization.

Enlightening

Reviewed in Canada on January 15, 2021

Verified Purchase

This is a highly enlightening book. The writer well scrutinizes a series of horrible censorship cases, and reveals the savage ideologies and motives of the digital nuclear enterprise of the big techs.

The book was written in September, but following what we see these days (Trump ban, Parler death, twitter/Facebook account purge etc), we shall concretely comprehend the precedents of the dark age that the big techs and their advocated are crafting for current (and probably near-future) generations.

#Deleted will be remembered as a great book, a warning for those who care about human freedom.
