Two weeks ago, twitter was the only company willing to publicly commit to not aiding the government in building a database of muslims or any other religious minority. At the time, many criticized the Intercept for a click-baity, misleading headline.
But the public shaming had an effect and now more companies have come forward to vow non-cooperation in repeating one of America's biggest mistakes - when the census bureau provided the names of Japanese to be rounded up for internment camps.
One company notably missing from the list is Oracle which owns the big-data profiling company BlueKai and whose CEO recently joined the president elect's transition team. Also absent is IBM, a company with a history of aiding the German government with their execution of the Holocaust.

Once you start learning about accurate historical accounts (from any source) of the formation, transformation, and continuation of the sociopolitical system of Islam, you will realize how apt the "sunny" site title is.

Whether or not it's an apt name, you're not likely to get that many people "converted" with it, since the only people not turned off by the title are probably in your camp already...
"Is that really true?" "I just spent the last hour telling you to think for yourself! Didn't you hear anything I said?"
