Internet censorship has undoubtedly been stepped up this year as it has every year for at least the last ten years. They are slowly taking our freedom in the name of our security. Benjamin Franklin once said “Those who surrender freedom for security will not have, nor do they deserve, either one” and yet the attacks on our freedom continue.
The government claim to be at war with online extremism but who are they after? They’re after us. It’s the people of their own nations they are trying to silence not ISIS, ISIL, Islamic Fundamentalists or the Taliban. This war on “terrorism and extremism” is quickly being turned in to a war on peoples freedom.
Bloggers, Vloggers, YouTubers and political Facebook pages are being highly monitored and censored. In most cases the people being attacked are not extremists, terrorists or even that controversial they are just political aware.
Somebody has obviously decided that the Internet is no place for the truth in fact they would be much happier if you would just carry on reading the propaganda printed by the mainstream media instead, if you please.
I believe in freedom for the papers, I say let them do and print whatever they want, if they want to print government approved propaganda then so be it. I also believe in freedom for the people let them talk and be heard and let them tell the truth without being interrupted, censored, oppressed and attacked for it.
The government, Google and Facebook definitely do not respond well to criticism and seem to have a genuine hate for democracy and your freedoms. I would like to bet mainstream media faces not such oppression when they spread their government approved and backed hatred.
The mainstream media consists of carefully selected and conditioned people. They have to be conditioned to the point of believing the shit they print or even worse for just not caring.
The governments have lost the argument so bad that all they are left with is removing it. People like me that have spent years spreading this are now silenced, you will find us if you look but the mainstream will not anymore. But they can’t silence us all.
