Vatican leaders are now calling for Catholics on the internet who do not meet their approval to be censored. The censorship would come in the denial of official certification from the Holy See.
Precisely how such a process would work was not specifically addressed within the final Youth Synod document, or any other place at the moment. What is clear is that leaders in the Vatican are feeling the heat and are concerned about continuing to lose control of their carefully constructed narrative.
Paragraph 146 of the final approved Synod document speaks to the need for creating "certification systems for Catholic websites, to counter the spread of fake news regarding the Church..."
Aside from the somewhat totalitarian-minded approach to dealing with criticism, which Pope Francis has said publicly he welcomes, the mechanism of how such a "certification" would work is a complete mystery.
For example, what would be the criteria for applying and being granted certification? How many sites would be eligible? Is the Vatican communications office sufficiently staffed with people fluent in multiple languages to review each website during the application?
How frequently would the renewal process be triggered? Would a renewal process even exist? What would be the mechanism for revoking a "certification" already granted?...

One good thing it would do, is out all the heterodox websites on one list.
So, some other questions:
WTF
So Pope Che is using standard left wing tactics, eh?
What a surprise.
Catholics will take care of this clown sooner or later.
Sooner please.
#romancrickets
The ones that took care of these problems became Lutherans.
So?
How about certification from the Holy Spirit?
The corruption of men at the Holy See is NOT the same as corruption of Church Doctrine, which the Holy Spirit protects.
Yet another crackdown by the homosexual pope.
So they want to resurrect the Catholic Legion of Decency, except more like a Ministry of Truth (from Nineteen Eighty-Four)?
Internet censorship.
Just like China and Venezuela.
And Facebook.

Boy these guys are some real Pharisees!
I guess the choice is coming down to would you rather be an officially denounced Catholic or an ex-Catholic?

Denial of official certification from the “Holy See”?
I suspect that most who would be denied such won’t have an issue with this.
What a joke. Especially after Bergoglio’s very own Vatican news portal, Vatican News, has been caught repeatedly referring to Bergoglio as the Successor of Christ.
