Who is affected? Many independent, rigorous, and present websites are seeing their visibility decline without explanation. Their content, carefully crafted and respectful of sources, is becoming less and less accessible in digital streams. Readers, researchers, educators, citizens. All are losing access to valuable, in-depth, and verifiable resources.
What’s at stake? If this trend continues, the diversity of voices will shrink, the quality of online content will decline, and editorial creativity will gradually fade. On the other hand, recognizing and supporting these spaces would help preserve long-form expression, solid sources, and living thought.
Why is now the time to act? Because the shift is already underway. Each day, essential content becomes invisible, replaced by smooth, interchangeable fragments. There is still time to signal this drift, to support those who hold the line, and to defend the possibility of an open, rigorous, and durable web.
For several years, we have been publishing demanding, well-documented, and meaningful content online. It addresses essential topics related to life, memory, awareness, and our shared future. It is crafted with care, respecting both sources and readers.
Yet its visibility is fading. Not through debate. Not through contradiction. But through silent, automated mechanisms that reduce its presence in digital streams. Without explanation. Without recourse. Without transparency.
This phenomenon affects many independent, rigorous, and present websites, regardless of tone or theme. It undermines the diversity of voices, the quality of content, and the possibility of publishing without saturation or uniformity. It also threatens creativity itself ; because without open, deep, and lasting spaces, ideas shrink, forms repeat, and the impulse to explore fades.
Today, search results favor short, smooth, interchangeable content. Fragments without sources, without tension, without memory. Answers that no longer teach, no longer question, no longer connect. Streams that reinforce what we already believe, without ever opening new questions.
This petition is a signal. It affirms a presence. It calls for recognition of those who hold the line, with endurance, with rigor, with clarity.
Support this initiative. Share it if it speaks to you. And if you wish, explore the content we publish. It’s there, available, present.
