Anti-Google Berlin Site (post was flagged and removed)

10 points by kilowatt 8y ago ↗ HN

Seriously disappointed this morning to see the anti-Google site https://fuckoffgoogle.de/ flagged and removed from Hacker News.

It makes real points that obviously clash with the cultural norms more prevalent here, but that's why I would have loved to see them discussed.

I noticed that too - very strange. The website contains content of concerned residents and could lead to good discussions. Maybe the language is a bit too direct for non Germans? In the US we talk a bit more cozy.

I will be happy to be the first to say all of the disparaging comments probably come from google employees.
