The news fell on November 28. The managers of the Google Adsense program have decided, purely and simply, to turn off the tap related to the advertising program on Breizh-info.com. More advertising, more advertisers and therefore more revenue for Breizh-info.com on that side, for an estimated loss of 12,000 euros a year.
The sleeping giants, these anonymous cowards who for several years have been carrying out a campaign of economic terrorism against many alternative but also traditional press sites (Valeurs Actuelles, Bolloré Group), have thus triumphed. And it took very little for Google, which blames us for more than a hundred articles dealing with immigration, Islamism, the environment, Covid-19, to capitulate and deactivate us.
Without attention. Without even a signature: because just as the Sleeping Giants are terrorists (who should be treated as terrorists) in hiding, the multinational Google is also a multinational of the clandestine. You therefore have almost no recourse. No phone number to call. No email address to contact. No forms to fill out. Google decides, Google applies, Google cuts the light. And you have nothing to complain about.

We let you find out what kind of article is part of the crackdown on Google, a company where leaders will one day have to realize that in all times, and in all mythologies, individuals who took themselves for gods rarely had a happy ending. We recall that Breizh-info.com has never been convicted of what Google accuses us of (out of 31,000 articles published in almost ten years…a media exception?), Google cannot therefore even take refuge behind this to justify its censorship .
Be that as it may, at present, and while waiting to find a new advertising agency (remember that in the past Taboola, but also Outbrain, have already succumbed to economic terrorism), it is a deficit of 12,000 euros that awaits us for next year .
If you believe our alternative press mission is essential and that we must respond in solidarity to economic terrorism, then now is the time to donate below.
