These firemen don't put out fires, but rather, they destroy books, videos, information, and anything else that contradicts a far-left world-view. They utilize fire at 451 degrees Fahrenheit. Google's robotics division has also reportedly developed a Mechanical Hound designed to sniff out resistance to its totalitarian destruction of offensive content.

Google aspires to be an organization that doesn't allow any dissent on the internet. And people have increasingly come to support and vote for policies that cancel, delete, and remove world-views and people they disagree with. It's a much cleaner, safer, entertaining world this way.
Responsibilities:
- Scour the internet, local book stores and libraries, YouTube, etc. for content that has the potential to make someone uncomfortable and destroy it.
- Cancel people the Company disagrees with.
- Go on coffee runs from time to time

I am reminded (for anyone that has watched the movie) of the burning scene, where a woman is torched to death, on top of a pile of books by notable authors, that one could be considered controversial.
Now people no longer read books, the world is the internet, where most of us find information, and the censorship to my mind could be likened to the burning scene in Fahrenheit 451.
Did Ray Bradbury have a prescient vision, or was he a good reader of the Signs of the Times, a rehtorical question on my part, maybe a bit of both?
