Still don't understand why we would want government to tell private industry what to do. Like let them be safespaces for the left, do your own thing. (Full disclosure: I don't use twitter or facebook)
The problem is you can’t do your own thing now. Parler was shut down. Even the win network was threatened with being shut down if we say the wrong words.
this is a good overview of the state of the situation.
Hence why some people do not like government getting involved with private companies, its like one of the current enemies is hurting the other enemies (big tech), which is a good thing, but in the long term this power could be a way to implement restrictions of speech for the individual, its the start of a slippery slope. But maybe this is a turning point with the other goings on in the world?
Australia is an interesting one, im living here right now and the propaganda is very brutal, and there is always this underlying narrative. Its just very hard to know where we will be in 10 years time, will we having the best years of our lives are all enslaved to an inescapable authoritarian system
I sincerely believe when this is all done and over, or if it continues, but either way Russia will be one of the most free nations on Earth. We should all start learning Russian language.
A sad day when Russia has better speech protections that the USA.

Parler is back up using a new server.
When was this? What happened? Who threatened it?
Yall should get on the .crypto https://unstoppabledomains.com/
domain names on the crypto decentralised network, resolved in all major browsers.
There was some stuff around January 6th. I think Cloudflare said they’d shut it down if people said anything violent.
Of course you can do your own thing. You might have some more hurdles to clear but still doable, just a little harder.

They are fucking monopolies not "private industry" They have completely lied and fucked over any competition .
Come on guys let's play fair with people who want us dead. Just go to Par.....oh wait.
And Florida, don't forget DeSantis.
Russia knows what's up.
They're also probably one of the few countries not bribed by big tech, unlike everywhere else.
But many countries like Australia and India are starting to get pretty mad at big tech, so that's a good sign at least.
Reign in Big Tech!
Whoa in Big Tech.
Russia is standing up for the citizens ?
This should wake people cause it shows America isn't!! Time to remove these tyrants
Russia's been pretty based since they dropped communism.
Too bad we can't say the same for SOME motherfuckers here.
It is amazing to think not that long ago russia was a communist country, oppressive with the best of them.
The contrast to today is plesant to say the least. Makes me want to know more about the hidden relations with Russia we used to have.
What do you expect from a British territorial government like the United States federal corporation.
You should join a real American government that actually protects your unalienable constitutional rights.

Except they cheat in the Olympics
Really good news! This is how they were gonna control us forever, cut our comms. Putin havin none of it!
Have you noticed how the script is being flipped as to who our enemies really are?
Gee- America are we now last?
A sad day.
Poland is doing this too, and UK and Germany are promising fines for 'illegal' and/or 'harmful' content that arent removed in a timely manner.

And its about damn time, the whole world needs to get involved in this battle.
Surprised by Australia. I thought they went down the opposite road a while ago.
Make it 1 billion per offence , retroactive :) Good thing I am not writing these laws!!

Look at all these other coutries doing patriot shit.... and we got stuck with Xiden.
Russia inclusion.
How do we become citizens?
Um...so the only people that can censor Russians.....are Russians. ;-)
Can we get around US censorship if we put Russia as our home country and current location in the settings?
The tide has turned. History is always evolving. Nothing new under the sun.
Russia - NOT THE UNITED STATES.
The problem is, either you're a platform or a publisher. You can't be both.
Looks like we may need to learn Russian.
In the unlikely event we lose our battle over here, that is.
