When you type the word 'idiot' into Google’s image search, guess what result comes up first?
Images of the US President, Donald Trump! Evil people, lol.
This is partly because the Green Day song American Idiot was used by protesters to soundtrack his trip to London.
Protesters, activists and Internet users are seeking to influence Google’s algorithm so that when the term 'idiot' is searched for, images of Trump pop up on Google.
How are they doing this? Thousands of people are believed to have uploaded images of Trump with 'idiot' as a tag and you know when that happens and you google 'idiot' it automatically brings up the image, hence Trump.

The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has issued warning against spraying, selling and mutilation of naira notes, a criminal offence, which the bank said attracts five years imprisonment.
Expressing worry over the act, which it said is becoming common practice among Nigerians, the apex bank said anyone caught would henceforth be made to face the full wrath of the law .
It assured marketers, merchants, shopping malls and supermarkets of the bank’s continuous injection of huge volumes of banknotes into the circulation.
The development, according to the Acting Director, Currency Operations Department, CBN, Mrs. Priscilla Eleje, was to preserve the pride of the country and ease difficulties being encountered by the traders and customers occasioned by the inadequate circulation of the lower denomination banknotes like N200, N100, N50, N20, N10 and N5.
Mrs. Eleje, who was represented at the public sensitsation and enlightenment campaign at Alesinloye market by a Deputy Director of the bank, Mrs. Olufolake Ogundero, added that the bank recognises the important role markets play in economic transaction, hence the need for ease accessibility of the lower denominations to carry out economic transactions.
She said: “It is a criminal offence punishable by six months imprisonment or a fine of N50,000 or both to sell, spray or mutilate the banknotes. It is also a criminal offence which attracts five years imprisonment without an option of fine for anybody to counterfeit the naira. Naira is our pride as a country. So, respect it.”

Benue State Governor Samuel Ortom said he has not declared for any political party despite the flooding of Makurdi with his campaign posters for the 2019 governorship on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Barely 24 hours after Ortom said the All Progressives Congress (APC) gave him a red card, his campaign posters bearing the PDP symbol for 2019 governorship race took over the streets of Makurdi, the capital.
The posters were put in strategic places alongside the earlier ones with APC symbol, but they did not bear the picture of Deputy Governor Benson Abounu.
But in a telephone interview with The Nation, Ortom said he was yet to declare for any political party.
He said: “Like I said earlier, I have been given a red card and I’m without a party. Maybe those who want to sign me are behind the posters, but I am yet to join any party.”
This is coming after new APC chairman, Adams Oshiomhole says, Ortom was still part of the party.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) will present the Certificate of Return to the Ekiti State governor-elect, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, TODAY.

Fayemi, who represented the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the election, defeated the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate, Prof. Kolapo Olusola and 33 other candidates to win Saturday’s governorship election in the state. Fayemi will be inaugurated on October 16.
