> Im pretty sure Google wouldn’t intentionally cut marginalized people like this off from the entire internet, would they? Please don’t respond with sarcasm.

Honestly, if you ask such terminally naive questions don't be surprised to get sarcasm in reply. Google does cut off access to chunks of people if it deems it profitable to do so!

It doesn't matter how "naive" you think a question is. Nobody here deserves sarcastic remarks in response to a good-faith question.

Literally the first guideline under "In Comments" is:

> Be kind. *Don't be snarky.*
