Now that governments are ourtsourcing censorship to corporations in their struggle against unwelcome news (these days they call that often "fake news" or "Russian propaganda" and voices are getting stronger to censor unwelcome messages directly, recently enhanced by protests against the covid measures, protection against the government are getting more important in Europe as well. But that is not yet much reflected in actual policies being made, mainly because those policies are made by the very people we need protection against. -- ir. J.C.A.
