Vast Search engine conspiracy???

Whats the connection with the cartoons? They don't have anyone's name in the cartoon and the artists aren't the names either... 😕
 
I was just looking at the cartoons. The cartoons were about the Abu Gharib prison abuses and specifically Lynndie England, the girl holding the leash.

WTF is your point.

sorry, dont mean to be rude, but wtf are you talking about?

If you go to google, altavista, yahoo, or dogpile image search and type in Lynndie England or Jeremy Sivits, nothing comes up. Thats kind of odd considering they're the abusers involved in the Abu Gharib prison scandal.
 
I'm willing to bet you have never coded in your entire life. If you have, shame on you. Why don't you try searching for the filenames before proclaiming conspiracy?
 
Many recent news stories turn up nothing in image searches... because news sites don't name their images after the people that are in them. They usually have numbers so they can be found in a database.

You wont see their pictures in image searches until other sites rename the images and post them.

WTH are you doing up so late? 😛 Yeah, this is mainly because it is a fairly new news story. I'm sure in time they will be plastered all over google image search.

Look, you moron. If average joe american goes to a search engine image search looking for pictures of these people, he will not find them. Yes, the web search is still uncensored, but still... why are major search engines censoring their image searches? Who is responsible?

If it were just google, I'd just think "oh, thats odd". However its 4 search engines so far that are doing this.

I'm not a conspiracy nut, but something is up, and I'm curious and bored at 2:30 am so I'd like to get to the bottom of it.

You would think at least one or two images would pop up.

Go to all the places you know her pics would be (news stories about her) and see what the file names are.

Not until someone renames the images will they be seen in that search.

There is no censorship here. The search will only find file names with her name in them.
 
That doesn't seem too strange. I'm sure there are lots of news stories about them, but pictures are probably scarce to non-existent.
