@TheZeldaZone well, you know that the first amendment and other similar articles in #constitution|s of #liberal #democracies, give you the right to #freedom of speech. That means the #GOVERNMENT cant #censor anyone or spread #propaganda. It doesnt mean #mastodon domains cant censor your #NSFW content!
#Skydance deal allows Trump’s #FCC to “censor speech” and “silence dissent” on #CBS
But the agency's approval drew fiery dissent from the only #Democratic commissioner, Anna Gomez, after requiring written commitments from Skydance that allow the government to influence #editorial decisions at CBS. Gomez accused the FCC of "imposing never-before-seen controls over #newsroom decisions and editorial judgment, in direct violation of the #FirstAmendment and the law."

“USAID Leaks: Censorship As Regime Change”
by Kit Klarenberg in Global Delinquents on Substack
“Leaked files expose how now-defunct intelligence cutout #USAID secretly employed the services of shady ‘counter-disinformation’ firm #Valent Projects, to #censor and #suppress online criticism of an illegitimate puppet government #Washington installed in #Sudan in August 2019“

Again #GeorgeGalloway is cutting through the noise precisely. It's not just #PinkFloyd, @rogerwaters, @macklemore, #Lowkey, #MIA, #Kneecap...

There are millions of artists taking a stand against #genocide in @palestine being muted by #MSM. But not even the #BBC could #censor all of us, successfully. Just like #BobVylan at #Glastonbury delivered the message #FREE #FreePalestine and #death #death2theIDF live on stage and telly.
It's #zioNAZI @israel against #humanity #HumanRights #civilization and in effect #WeThePeoples. So, it's natural that #FreeArtists support @bdsmovement, #FFC and @intifada not #ethniccleansing. What a surprise for #cokeheads like Starmer, Merz & Macron, isn't it?
Unarmada for Gaza: Long bars, extreme content
While this is absolutely correct, the author fails to reach the conclusion that Trump's authoritarian bullshit wouldn't do this with either the left or the right if there wasn't already a built in mistrust of Jews independent of him and his dumb shit within their social, political, and ideological milieus.
"The consequences are serious. By making #Jews the public face of a campaign to #censor #universities, this approach invites backlash from both ends of the ideological spectrum. On the right, it feeds into age-old tropes about #Jewish control of media, academia or public discourse. On the left, it generates suspicion that Jewish advocacy is merely a cover for the suppression of #Palestinian voices.
The effect is to isolate Jews politically and socially − at the exact moment we are being told we are being “protected.”

@shoq not to mention the "#Enshittification" of #movies is designed to make it easy to #censor it for reactionary regimes, allowing mig companies to get #pinkwashing done in "The West" withoit missing oit on any revenue...

"TakeItDown Act has passed the #House 409-2 giving #Trump & the #FTC power to #censor the #internet.
The bill seems good at first glance. It requires online platforms to remove nonconsensual intimate imagery aka“revenge porn.”
However, it will also enable the FTC to demand #content be removed from websites.
In fact, Trump said he will use the bill ON HIS OWN BEHALF, presumably to remove criticism of him from the web."

Ever since "Fuck you, Mr. Trump," I've followed your comic, Doonesbury, and several others directly from as close to the source as I can get.
It's been eye-opening to see the shameless invertebracy of the #BostonGlobe as they #censor the mildest criticism of The Great Orange Shitgibbon (my phrase).
Distributed information sources are essential in these times.
As are courageous cartoonists!
Why is Elon Musk Throttling the Signal App?
Links to a popular encrypted messaging app used by federal workers are being blocked on X.

"Self-professed free speech crusader #ElonMusk seems to be trying to #censor users on his own platform...
“Signal, the encrypted messaging #app, has recently become a major tool for #government workers looking to blow the whistle on #DOGE.” #Journalists also using #Signal to solicit tips from unhappy federal workers."
yes, when #Vance,
representing a #regime that operates with lists of #banned words to #censor scientific truth,
speaks of "#free speech", he means
let no regulation get in the way of the algorithmic spread of #fascism
let no democratic controls get in the way of our oligarchies (russia, us) buying your elections
let no fact-checking get in the way of our messages, designed to bring fear and hate,
as those two make such a fertile substrate for fascism

Via Tom's Hardware: Facebook flags Linux topics as 'cybersecurity threats' — posts and users being blocked
Does this mean that Meta/Facebook is going to also ban mentions of:
What an absolutely asinine thing to do. Linux is incredibly prevalent in the technology landscape today. Yes, #linux on the desktop is a small percentage of the overall devices on the market today. However, linux usage in #embedded, #server, and #appliance applications is to a level where censoring references to it is insanity.
The irony of all of this? Zuckerfaces recent pull back of moderation on Meta's sites.... Meaning it's now okay to bash socially vulnerable populations, spread tons of mis-information on many social and political topics... But linux?"Oh no! That's a #CyberSecurity threat!"
This reeks of political #tomfoolery. I won't be surprised if it's eventually revealed that our new overlords put pressure on #Meta to #censor linux.
