RE: Circumventing European Censorship

in #politics6 years ago

I hope you stay vigilant! You have far better tools in my opinion to fight the people who want to take away freedom.

  • Your culture and history have a huge chunk about fighting for freedom, not only from foreigners as is usually the case in Europe, but from any oppressive government.

  • You also have your constitution and its amendments, which grant you far stronger rights than we enjoy in Europe. Most of the constitutional rights we have in my country (and its similar elsewhere in the EU) are written in such a way as to allow a law to limit them and we have such laws!

Since nobody is going to just grant us our rights, consider my post as an introduction on the tools that can be used to fight for our rights in the digital age.

Sort:  

We dodged a huge bullet, free speech cases have been being decided on the thinnest of margins, if Hillary had been able to appoint a justice to the supreme court we would be losing our freedom of speech in no time. It's scary to see supreme court justices declaring their opposition to free speech. I am glad you have found and are disseminating tools to allow others at least some measure of free speech, without it there is no way to stop authoritarianism like sharia law or what they have in the UK.
