Google admits Biden administration pressured YouTube to censor content that didn't violate policies. In this explosive Faith & Freedom episode, we unpack Google's September 23rd confession to Congress, the shadowbanning of conservative voices, and what the Oracle-led TikTok restructuring means for free speech in tech. Plus, my personal experience with TikTok blocking Bible verses while approving the same content on Meta platforms. We discuss the spiritual warfare aspect of tech censorship, practical resistance strategies, and why this admission changes everything for conservatives in tech. Whether you're a developer tired of hiding your faith or a business owner fighting DEI theater, this episode provides the receipts and the roadmap forward.
