Full blown censorship.
What could go wrong with big tech deciding what truth is?
The coming Global control and solidification of information and narrative. Social credit system much like China’s to follow.
All guised under safety, ‘anti-disinformation’, what is truth and fact, etc.
The “intelligence community” has the most fake accounts, but that’s OK.
The link tax and meme ban were a preview of coming attractions.
Pity enough people didn’t heed the warning.
And the arbiter of mis/dis/mal-info is who again?
The EU is the New USSR
No First or Second Amendments - this is the state of affairs.

We already saw the Proof of Concept for this sort of information control in 2020 when Big Tech in lockstep with the MSM and U.S. government security agencies branded Hunter Biden’s laptop “Russian disinformation”. No further discussion allowed.

1st Amendment? We don’t need no stinking 1st Amendment!
“the biggest platforms [are] signing onto Thursday’s agreement.” Failures are big, top down programs, such as kindergarten for all kids.

The effort in fighting “disinformation” is proportional the contempt the liberals feel for the average man. They feel that stupid people need their guidance.
Scary Poppins can go get a job there.
