By "books", I mean blog posts. Back in the days when Google's motto was Don't be evil -- my youthful days of 2003 -- I signed on to the once-independent Blogger platform.
Doug Ross @ Journal has been hosted on the platform since 2003 or thereabouts.
But within the last 48 hours, Google/Blogger has been on a purge of my content -- either un-publishing my posts or simply putting them behind a click-wall.
Why? Oh, there's no porn or racism or misogyny or other malevolent content. Just stuff that perturbs Marxists and Democrats, but I repeat myself.
I mean if Google simply wants me to move everything to my Substack, they can just ask.

The beatings will continue until moral improves.
Hang in there Doug! Just let us know if and when you move somewhere so that we can find you.
I second Dan Ryan Galt's comment...Have seen them take down many sites simply because they want to control what we say.
I've had a blog called Running from Babylon since August 2009 on Blogger and wrote there as "GardenGirl." 24 hours ago, my ENTIRE blog was deleted. Yes, book burning is right! Unreal.

And who is shocked to find out G@@gle sucks?
Shoot. Substack isn't working for people who forgot their p'word. Serves me right for getting old.
You're probably lucky they haven't done this long before now, Doug. Welcome to the USSA.
Unfortunately, Doug, you're not alone :-(
A quick search of how many pages of my website are displayed by major search engines, as of the time of this comment, using the site: search command:
Baidu (China) = 2 pages (no surprise, my site is in English)
Google Search = "About 14" (actually, 12) pages
Bing = "179 results" (only the 1st 50 are shown) pages
DuckDuckGo = 35 pages (this could be limit set by DDG)
Yandex (Russia) = 617 (only the 1st 250 displayed, could be an set limit) pages
Yandex - a Russian search engine - comes the closest to a true indexing/display engine.
Hard to believe, but true. Unfortunately, Google commands over 90% of the Search Engine Market.
Hang in there!
