I received mail from eures.europa.eu to Gmail for years before Google’s new “be evil” act.

Ban Google in EU. Don’t let citizens use enemy services in a cold war.

      My Gmail, and I forgot to screenshot because I’ve learned to hit the “not spam” button by reflex like swatting a mosquito.

        So email from one EU domain got filtered for you, and you concluded that every email from the EU is being filtered for everyone, on account of being from the EU? Am I understanding this right?

          I assume there’s one filter for the whole Gmail doing the same for everyone. For the sabotage to be allowed to continue, it has to be plausibly deniable, so it’s probably doing a little bit of this and that randomly for different people.

            Can you think of any other possible and more likely explanation for them being filtered, other than “the entire EU is being filtered by Google”?

            If you wanted evidence that the entire EU is not being filtered, what would that evidence look like?
