The stormtrooper tactics of the cult of scientology — both on and off the ‘net — have long been of broad concern. Readers of FmH know I’ve frequently linked to accounts of their antics. I’ve usually written the name of the cult as “s*c*i*e*n*t*o*l*o*g*y” so they wouldn’t find my comments as easily in trolling the net for critical comments; they’ve been known to hack their opponents’ sites in the name of enlightenment and freedom… Thanks to wood s lot, I was pointed to this site which details their meticulous efforts to manipulate the ranking of their own sites in Google and other search engines to prevent readers from finding sites critical of scientology. It might be useful, as Mark Woods and I have done, to use the scientology link to point to such critical sites instead. If this were done enough, it might interfere significantly with their attempt to have only their own hits shown in searches on the term scientology.. Consider doing this too if you agree, please. [thanks, Mark]
