Google is my first choice, but when it's not working, I use Yahoo. If my internet is too slow even for that, I resort to Baidu, but I try to avoid it as much as possible.

For me Google HKG works perfect in the morning hours, the earlier the better.  But as the day progresses, it decays until I can't reach it at all, mostly in evenings.

Sometimes in the mornings I can get into Google USA, but afternoons and evenings are a no-no.

So, I do most of my searches in the morning hours.

For be Baidu isn't very reliable, especially their maps. Don't know how many times I've been tricked into walking forever to reach a place that promised me alcohol and cake and end up seeing an empty lot of rubble

So the hip Googe company trying to push left progressive controlled speech and tell us what is best for us and spy on us has been outflanked on the left by the social justice politically correct bullshit they created. OUTSTANDING

 

The social justice warrior employees rebelled within the company against Google being a hypocrite on human rights abuses from oppressive nations for the sake of money. The lefties are eating each other with there talking bullshit. Some days getting up and living in hell has some true appeal.

ScotsAlan:

Socialism predates Google ambi. Indeed, Jesus himself was a bit of a socialist. As were the greeks. It could even be argued that ancient egypt was socialist going by evidence found the the workers village by the valley of the kings. In fact, it could be argued that the pre historic concept of hunter gathering was socialist. Different groups doing different things to later come together to share. Socialism might even predate us. Pack hunting for example, ants, termites and so on. Capatalism, in the modern sense, only dates to the late 1700s, when Adam Smith published his book So its a bit far fetched to blame google for socialism.

i din not mention socialism, the employees hired by google don't want to promote a censored search engine for use in China and do business in China, but they censure political views of others in America with no problem. That makes the "know what is best for others" company a hypocrite. The employees at Google can't afford homes where the office is and the pay structure for the lower tier workers are worse than taking welfare.

 

If your going to be a progressive company, walk the walk and not just talk the talk.
