Bing News is a Disinformation Back Channel for Content Farms
April 18, 2024

All the major Big Tech sites don't want to pay real news media outlets a license for aggregating news, so what they started doing was sourcing content farms. Content farms are how Far Right, Far Left, fringe groups and foreign agents have been spreading disinformation in the United States. The way that it works is that someone puts up a website for dirt cheap and uses AI to whip up garbage articles filled with fake news and clickbait, or hires college kids or Third Worlders off of Fiverr, Amazon Turk or some other place to crank out B.S. Clickbait like, "Why GenZs are Terrible," "Why Boomers Destroyed the Economy," "How the Democrats are Ruining America," or "How Republicans are Bringing Back Slavery."

Many of these content farms play both sides against the middle. I posted a screenshot showing how one content farm accidentally released two articles with the exact same title on the same day, where one was meant to attack Baby Boomers and the other Millennials. The content farm is called, "From Frugal to Free," and on March 25, it published one article titled, "22 Reasons Millennials are Ruining the Economy," and another one on the same day titled, "20 Reasons Why Boomers Ruined the Economy."

Some of the content farms in question:

The Washington Examiner (run by college kids)
Knewz
Wealthy Boomers
Pulse of Pride
Stapler Confessions
Flannels or FlipFlops
Cryptopolitan
MovieWeb
ThyBlackMan
Engineer Finances

The list goes on and on...all fly by night content farms sourced as news.

Bing is not a victim of these content farms. It's in on this scam. It allows members of the content farm to report any comment correcting the information as violating the TOS. Members of these farms also pretend to be Americans reacting to the article. So, for example, in a fake news article about "Florida removing millions off of Medicaid," teams of them will post stuff like, "Those Republican scum" (pretending to be Democrats) or vice versa, as in, "Good for Florida for getting rid of people sponging off the system."

Remember why Bing is doing this. It's doing this so it can keep up the appearance of having a news section while refusing to pay real news media outlets. Sites like Bing, Facebook, Google and others need to be criminally investigated because they have allowed these fake news content farm to flourish in the months leading up to the presidential election.

Planet Motors Car Dealership in Richmond Hill
February 27, 2024

Stay away! PLEASE Read before you buy!
I purchased a 2019 landrover discovery with 80,000km from this dealership on Feb 6th and it broke down and left me stranded on Feb 17th. I had it 11 days!
I called the dealership immediately and the sales guy Nico told me that because I got a deal on the car that I'm on my own. He refused to let me tow it back to their dealership!
The car went into limp mode and my partner felt it was transmission fluid issues. I asked my sales person if this had been inspected and filled up and he responded yes!
I had it towed to the Landrover Dealership in Ajax. They gave me a scary quote stating the transmission had to be completely replaced. I called the dealership and sent emails/texts since they didn't answer the phone. They said they wanted it towed to a "normal" mechanic. I did another tow even when planet motors refused to pay the tow fee and still refused to have my car back to their own on site mechanic. I towed it to Fast Auto Concepts in Oshawa where they informed me that the transmission had next to no fluid at all! This is why the car went into limp mode. I was also informed the NOX sensor had to be replaced.
I am now out of pocket almost $4,000 plus my car is still in the shop and I used up all my CAA tow privileges.
So here is the real kicker….11 days I had this car. When I went to pick it up they didn't get me to pay the balance there and stated they would send me the invoice for the balance. They transferred the car into my name and gave me the keys. Since this all happened they have now realized they didn't send me the invoice.
So instead of standing behind their vehicle like their website states I actually start getting messages from the sales person Nico threatening a lien on the car and repo by 5pm that day if I don't pay the balance owed.
When I refused to pay until my car issues were identified fully and a discussion about how to cover those costs for my nonfunctioning car I then get emails from the actual dealership owner Toni Sultzberg now threatening to call the police and charge me with car theft! Like I stole my own car from their dealership because they didn't have me pay the balance when they signed the car over and handed me the keys. It was mind blowing.
OMVIC is now involved and investigating. They call the dealership and can't get past reception. The owner to this day has not picked up the phone for me either and only sends insulting, threatening emails.
When trying to negotiate with Nico he actually texts that this isn't his problem and that if the car had been sent to their own mechanic they could repair for less….he wouldn't let me send it back to them! I was also told I must have put gas in my diesel! Nope! Oh and I must have turned the "shift knob" wrong and that must have messed up the car. No! Transmission issues confirmed by 2 different mechanics. Still they refuse to acknowledge.
When I asked about their website stating they stand behind their vehicles, 14 day satisfaction, 3 mth warranty on power train etc….response back was that it wasn't wrote down in the purchase agreement so they do not hold themselves to it! I was told I should have checked agreement before I signed to be sure it was included.
Toni stated he has been in business for 25 years. How they are is beyond me if this is how they handle their customers and service after they take your $$$.
I saw a past negative post by an AJ on Google dated 2 mths ago. The response back from the owner screamed cover up, very condescending and he actually bashes their customer about credit. In the experience I just had and still living they seem good at twisting it around to play the victim so AJ….thank you for your honest review just as mine here just now. I have all text/emails to back up everything above. I feel your frustration because I'm living it right now.
I'm already preparing for a response to mine in a way where they will not take accountability for their behaviour and somehow come out victimized.

ABSOLUTE CROOKS WHO DON'T CARE IF THEY PUT LIVES IN DANGER!
June 8, 2015

They should allow for a rating of Zero (0) stars. Only gave them 1 because I had to.

Purchased a vehicle there and immediately told them there was something wrong with the front doors but I did not know what. Advised them on at least 3-4 separate occasions that there was something wrong with the doors. Told them what was happening with them and the sound they were making. They never took care of the problem - kept saying nothing was wrong. Also, told them that the muffler was loud and making a tinging sound. They sent me to Monroe Muffler to have them "look at it". Monroe said the muffler was "rigged" and not put on correctly and the parts they used to connect were "all rusted out". United Auto did nothing to rectify or fix this problem. Eventually, the muffler fell off altogether and you can hear me coming from a mile away - but of course they claim I've had the vehicle too long for it to be their problem.
The doors no longer close and the passenger door has even flown open while driving * WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE. I was basically told to pound salt because the vehicle was a year old. I even told them I would buy the parts to fix the doors if they just had their flunkies put the parts in - they would not accommodate.
But the worst offense - When I got my vehicle inspected after the first year of ownership, I was told that the emergency brakes had been removed from the vehicle. When I contacted United Auto, they tried saying the car was a year old and it was not their responsibility... even though they had clearly put an illegal inspection sticker on the window a year before. They even tried to infer that I took the emergency brakes out of the car. His only concern was wanting to know why I took the car to my mechanic for inspection, rather than him - obviously they planned on putting another illegal sticker on it the following year. They finally did pay for the parts for the emergency brakes but I had to split the cost of the labor - FOR THEIR THIEVERY.

To add insult to injury, I realized when the front bumper fell off (which holds the plate) that it was somehow rigged temporarily in place - I had to get under the vehicle myself and fix this. It is also an absolute rust bucket - the back bumper and and the sides are rusting right through. There was not a single drop of rust on it when I purchased it so I'm not sure what they do to temporarily hide that so people will purchase.

Magnano even had the balls to use the oldest Used Car Salesman line in the book and claim that the car was previously owned by nuns. I did not fall for it but just laughed it off at the time and said I have never seen a nun driving a Chevy Blazer... I also pointed out that the previous owners registration was still in the glove box and her name wasn't "sister" anyone.
When you walk in his door, he automatically assumes you are an idiot.

DO NOT EVEN CONSIDER PURCHASING A VEHICLE FROM THESE SHEISTERS!

Tip for consumers:

This review is NOT for Bing. It is for United Auto in Olean, NY. Not sure why it did not register for the business it was meant for.
I like Bing and use it as much as I use Google
