This would be an attempt to put in global laws to control what we can look at and what we can say because it impacts money. We already have such laws in the states but for the most part they are to keep the immediate peace and not outright prohibitions meant to censor to preserve profit. This shows the profits and profit mechanism have become unjust. it would also highlight what a radical force spreading free speech is.
From a skim read, this isn’t about blocking links, but the snippets of text that are associated with them. In short, it is more aggressive enforcement of flawed intellectual property laws.
Makes sense. The thing they are afraid of most is having their lie machine shut off, but that is exactly what must happen. Stopping indoctrination, stopping spam, its the same issue. Their megaphone is being taken away and they are being introduced to a level playingfield for mind share. They wont control with talking points or be able to generate trash memes anymore.
@Warren and everybody else for that matter. You should read up on Bill C-51, the bill Harper and his conseratives are fast tracking through in Canada here. It would not only affect economic freedom but also free expression and pretty much all freedoms in Canada. I think that would most definitely include internet censorship.
