But what we're seeing now is official actions to wipe out
public access to information containing some "trigger words"
using crude algorithms generated by glorified hackers
working for an unelected billionaire. Seriously, we
shouldn't read about the "Enola Gay" bomber? Changing URLs
by automatically prefixing them with "dei" if the subjects
of the web pages are black?

I did research too, and all I see is people claiming that it's being

They are correcting only as a response to widespread outrage from both sides of the political spectrum. I think they were surprised that even Republicans revered military and others who were not lily white.

 Ohferchrissake.
They erred. And they are rectifying the errors.

And what could possibly have triggered that error? It didn't happen at random, Andrew.
They realized their "error" only when the political blowback hit them in the face.
