How to Bypass the Online Censors

Over the past several years, we’ve seen an increasingly persistent crackdown on conservative voices by big tech companies. In 2016 we saw former Editor of Breitbart, Milo Yiannopoulos, banned from Twitter for vague and subjective reasons. Twitter claimed it was due to him violating their terms of service.

As conservatives have pointed out, however, these same terms of service somehow don’t apply to liberal users of their platform, such as Sarah Jeong. Despite celebrating how she enjoys being cruel to “old white men,” and comparing “dumbass f*cking white people” to “dogs pissing on fire hydrants,” she is still verified, and has not been suspended once.

In 2018, we saw Alex Jones, a popular conspiracy theorist and radio host, have his online presence completely wiped out of existence. In just 24 hours, he was completely banned from The Apple Store, Facebook, YouTube, and Spotify, despite having millions of subscribers. Twitter and other social media platforms quickly followed suit, giving many conservatives the impression that this was a coordinated attack on free speech by big tech companies.

Just recently as well, we’ve seen Amazon remove anti-vax books, and as many conservatives know, things are only going to get worse. “News sites,” like The Independent, Huffington Post, CNN, and Buzz Feed, are beginning to delete their comments sections altogether. Why? It’s simple – they know that most Americans don’t buy into their agenda. They want to make conservatives feel isolated, as if nobody else agrees with us.

Disqus removed their platform from popular manosphere website Return of Kings, again, under the typical leftist excuse of “hate speech.” They’ve also removed their platform from Info Wars, making it difficult for users to engage with one another on important topics.

That’s where a new piece of software known as “Dissenter” comes in. Over the past year, we’ve seen an incredible amount of innovation come from conservatives, who have been forced to either innovate, or see our rights trampled on. Dissenter aims to fight big tech censorship, because with just a simple browser extension, you can literally comment on any page on the internet, with zero fear of being suspended, deleted, or silenced.
