Saw and signed one petition with which I agreed with. Then the spam began. Nothing but petitions for leftist and anti American causes.

Like others who have reviewed this site today I received a request to sign a pro impeachment petition for removal of President Trump. There are a lot of people in Washington D. C. who need to go, and the president is not one of those.

I removed my email from their site.

This used to be a fun site. However the moderates have started targeting and banning people who disagree with them. Abd the new Eclipse change to the site makes is almost totally useable

I met several women on this site. Each one of them has some sort of mental problem.

One I dated for five months, a 70 year old looking for a sugar daddy. Had I stayed for the long term I would have been husband number nine.

Stay away from this site.

The search function on this site is the worst I have ever seen. Enter a search term and as much as 95% of the returns products are not related at all to the product entered for a search. Example I searched for night lights and the first page of returned item for sale was feminine napkins. Not even close to a night light.

  • Ancestry

1/3/20

Being interested in my family history I signed up for a premium version of this site. Big mistake. It is almost impossible to clearly search for an ancestor. Even when you set for an exact search, most of the time nothing shows up even though if you broaden the search suddenly your ancestor shows up.

Or, as in one case I traced an ancestor to central Indiana in 1936. It is known she was in California in 1967, but cannot be found.

And other cases, two great uncles, brothers, an entry by someone not in the family failed to include their youngest sister, who happened to be my grand mother. And a first cousin once removed was listed as have only one daughter, born in 1947. The other, born in 1951 and a high school classmate fails to show. And the original poster do not correct the date when pointed out the them.

If the annual fee was $25.00 this site might be worth the price. However $198.00 a year it robbery.

I did cancel my account before being charged.

I don't post on Reddit because it takes an act of Congress to do so. Reddit is at best a porno site pretending to a social platform.

Like most of the so call background check there are errors. So many in fact this site is worthless and for the fees charged a scam. I did a check on my oldest son for example and it has his and martial status totally wrong. My report was not any better except my race was correct, however most of the rest the data was wrong, wrong, wrong. Save your money for better things than this site.

Had subscribed to their emails regarding health issues until an email of a political nature arrived listing the so called five most influential woman. Every one of them was either an entertainer of a leftist political activist. Blocked them.

  • News Break

6/8/20

Thus is a very poor site. The news mostly has a left leaning view point. In addition this site offers a classified section. I posted an item there and is this is written there are two inquires which the site does not permit me to reply to. Same goes with the mobile app for Android. It is not possible to reply to the inquiries or set my home location. The app says I am in California when I live in Texas. And the strangest think is both the web page are using the exact same sign in but shows one with the correct city and the other where ever.

  • Spokeo

Accuracy on this site is nonexistent. Doing a search for my name does bot show my name, but does show me as my youngest son who is 35 years old. And his name is not the same as mine. As far has this site is concerned I don't exist.

And my oldest son, the junior, has two listings, one of which lists his age as 5 years older then he really is.

Searching my address shows people who have never even lived in my city as living here.

Like most of these sites the search results are not reliable

I signed up for Gab a few months and have been trying for weeks to confirm my email. Out of a dozen attempts on three time did the validation request reach my email and all three times there was a reponse "something is not right". After watch the CEO push his superstition and not seeing hard any posts I deleted my account today.

After finally getting in, I find there are several atheist pages on this site even though the owner claims to be a christrian. Many of the so called christians troll these sites and is normal for the they name call and insult because they cannot back up their comments with evidence or facts,\.

I quit the site yerterday.

Tip for consumers:
Stay away

  • Movoto Real Estate

Movoto.com is another website listing properties for sale on the Multi Listing Service. Today while checking to see the status of a neighbor's house up for sale. I google the address and go to the listing and wow, the photo the house for sale is not the neighbors, rather mine, which is not for sale.

Funny thing is another search on this site for the neighbors address shows the correct house in one of two photos on the site, but the other, a Google Earth picture is of my house.

So far two telephone calls have not solved the problem

Sloppy work

Claims to be center right and conservative. My first and only post was attacked by a couple of left wing sheep. My total time on the site lasted less that six hours before I left.

  • MeWe

4/13/21

I joined a group on MeWe and from then on all I could see was comment on the group and nothing else. As bad as Facebook is at least you can get more news I your feed than with MeWe. The search function is not very useful either. Finding people you may actually know to add as friends is almost impossible.

It would be nice to open the site and see something in my feed besides my posts. No new news or comments from other people and not apparent way to change it. No way shows to contact them either. MeWe may be going the way my Facebook account did but MeWe does not have 12 years.

Opened an account this more and posted an item for sale. One response interested and then no response. The second wanted to try the old "I will send you a cashiers check and you ship me the item" scam.

Of course I rejected his offer. And no way exists to report a scam attempt.

I am deleting my account there. Yet almost a month after deleting my account my listing still shows on the site, yet I can't log in now to remove it nor respond to inquiries about the listing.

  • Facebook

I have been on Facebook for 10 years and have posted many, many comments on issues from a conservative point of view.

Lately how ever I have had two posts removed and had posting restricted for period. The first post was about Facebook's favorite criminal activity, one that has been frequently in the news for the last three year.
I am deleting my Facebook account. Not worth the hassle to put up with their crap
The other had to do with Facebook censorship of conservative points of view. Never mind certain left wing group and other of liberal view point can post threats of violence and brag about acts of terrorism they have commented without being shut down.

All of these reprisals from Facebook began after I won a dispute over a fraudulent charge on my credit card.

Planning on deleting my profile later today.

Facebook has a very loose definition of hate speech. Mainly anything with a left view is permitted. One star is too many for this site. In fact I was suspended for saying my wife is Asian, not American and fakebook called it hate speech. My wife is from the Philippines there for Asian.,

In May I paid for a premium version of their System Mechanic software. In early July an upgrade was issued. When first installed, the program could only be found in the remove programs setting in the control panel.

Reinstalled, same problem. Now I won't install at all. Waste of money. And on their webpage they admit they have problems with the installation of the software and will fix it some.

Since I have paid for the program and now can't use it, I will not renew.

Stay away from this one, folks.

  • Harbor Freight Tools

6/24/19

On April 26,2019 I purchased a four channel wireless security system for my home. One of the selling points was being able to monitor the camera on line. After mounting the cameras and connecting the receiver to the everything work fine. Other that setting the date and time no others settings had to be made. Unit worked fine until June 20th. Then it became impossible to monitor the camera on line. The receiver shows it is not connected to the web. Swapped cables and port and no luck. Called Harbor Freight technical support and the person with whom I spoke told me "we have never had one of these unit fail. The problem is with your ISP". Bull. One device does not connect, regardless of setting and it the Harbor Freight product. I was also told to tinker with the router settings. But I don't own the router.

  • Zillow

7/17/18

Zillow is a site for buying and selling real estate and has a section to review restate agents. However, if the agent in not employed by you you cannot write a review, even if the other parties agent costs you a sale as recently happened to me.

Also today I find the listing for a neighbor's house up for sale includes a photo of my house. Totally incompentet.
Not recommended.

  • Glarysoft

10/31/19

I have used this program in one way or another for almost 10 years, first using it to repair my daughter's totally messed up laptop. I have found it worked reasonably for a free program.

After my Windows 7 computer when down, I purchased a new Window 10 computer and transferred files.

For some reason Windows 10 likes to duplicate folders. Since Glary utilities as a duplicate file delete function I attempted to delete over 140,000 duplicate files made my windows 10.

In the past Glary utilities would allow a user to click a key called "Check Intelligent" and bulk delete all the duplicates in two clicks. But not now.

And if you contact the company, they are quick to response in will imply the user does not know how to use the program, but will offer no solution to the problem.
