Set The Spinoff as a ‘preferred source’ today!
Several major New Zealand news sites have recently published stories urging readers to set them as a preferred source in Google.
“A new Google feature lets you choose which publishers you want more of in your Search results, offering you a more personalised experience,” wrote RNZ.
“If you don’t like tech giants and foreign governments like Trump’s telling you what you should and shouldn’t see on the internet, there is a small thing you can do right now,” wrote Stuff, explaining why it’s important in terms of AI slop the government’s stalled Fair Digital News Bargaining Bill.
“Should we be telling people to do this too,” wrote an unnamed Spinoff employee in the company’s Slack. A consensus was reached that we might as well.
It really is simple: just click this link, then check the box next to The Spinoff. Then you’re free to close the tab! If you want to type in the names of other news sites you like and do the same for them first, that’s fine too.
Better living everybody!
