In their latest censorship proposal, the United Kingdom will be regulating the speech of its citizens, even within private messages.
Companies that fail to live up to requirements will face huge fines, and senior directors who are proven to have been negligent will be held personally liable. They may also find access to their sites blocked (just like what happens in China)…
The regulator will be tasked with ensuring social media companies tackle a range of online problems, including:
Incitement of violence, encouragement of self-harm or suicide, spreading news that the government does not approve of, online bullying, 'inappropriate material' (which could be porn or just about anything else) and "abusive" content (which could be classified as anything snotty bureaucrats are offended by).
Kiss your online freedom goodbye UK. You know what? Sometimes people have to experience true evil before they understand.
Meanwhile Brits better get a hold of Tor, I2P and a private VPN. Also, having some p2p platforms backed up such as Retroshare, Tribler, Soulseek, IPFS Desktop and Fopnu might come in handy too.
You don't because you have no soul, ethics or likely any life left in you to care about anything anymore. So go back to sleep, this issue is for people who care about the future.

So…. it's Sharia.

Killcen? You still in here? Do you actually use any of those tools you have mentioned? I only ask because I have used almost all of them. I could leave you a dat archive message in Markdown, if I thought you might be able to access it. Want me to make one and send you a link? Do you use Beaker Browser? I know you use Linux. The AppImage works great. You don't even have to install. You know how to use an AppImage right? I'll wait…

Wow it must be a targeting shit storm in ghosty mc ghost town in the British isles.
Busy right now. I'll add to the message later. If you really want to communicate there are many safe ways. We can agree on one. I'll try to check in on you in this hellhole once in awhile until I decide if you are ready to pull your shit together yet. In the meantime, lay off the bottle.

I'm busy with lots on my mind. Don't worry. Real news will return.
This has NOTHING to do with CP, and EVERYTHING to do with CONTROL OF CONTENT.
You fail to see this in today's world? Are you 12 years old?
Governments are in panic over the amount of exposure to their corruption and fraud, they are angry that citizens can speak freely and openly, share whatever we want, contribute information freely and they want that to STOP. Their intention is to turn the Internet into a highly regulated cable TV service. Only their desired and approved crap will be broadcast, everything else they want prohibited and dissolved.
So you want the internet to end up like a TV network? Because let me make this clear: most do not. And if worse comes to worse I will simply CUT internet service as I did with my cable TV service…. that is, if the internet ever becomes that regulated. And many others will follow my lead. BTW: No bullshit: I was one of the original cable cutters back in the early 2000s (before that ever became a movement)!
Isaac Perry
Just remember: the end goal these control freak bureaucrats is to turn the internet into a cable TV network. Designated internet 2.0 channels will be as followed: Google, Facebook, Myspace, Amazon, Snatchat, Uber, Netflix, Apple, Microsoft, and a few other privileged state-approved corporate oligarchies. And the rest of the internet they want flushed out of existence!!!
I'm prepared to go back living life as it was the 1970s, homesteading if I have to. Only if they do get their way destroying the web.

You may wanna check dat archive!

Please give us a head's up so we recognize it amongst all this other shit you've been shoveling at us.

He probably doesn't know how. He appears to exhibit the mentality of a teacher who has never actually done anything in their entire life.

Fuck you, the stupid link doesn't work. Tried it twice. NOTHING LOADED.

Newfag here, long time lurker but rarely post. This one though has really been gnawing at me…the thought of full censorship scares the living fuck out of me.
My understanding is that Tor running on tails, then a general VPN over my entire internet connection a good solution to keeping my online freedom (for now).
I'd appreciate any helpful links for faggot friendly guides on how to stay free and uncensored online. Gonna get my whole family up and running on this.
Cooper Robinson
Just review the link I post below but I want you to know ONE thing before you start reading into all this, no matter how paranoid you get with counter security measures… there is NO SUCH THING as 100% security…… if you are a big enough target (for whatever reason it may be), they'll get to you in due time…..
That said, check out some tips here: >>>/prepare/22
Nicholas Nguyen
The best way to stay uncensored would be to use decentralized P2P networks (before asking, YES get yourself an older PC or laptop to use these):
>>>/prepare/75
Remember use a private VPN (preferably one with "no log policy" and outside 5 eye nations).

The UK needs to be nuked. It's leading the world in surveillance and censorship of its own people for the benefit of their enemies.
Gavin Ortiz
The UK is following China. China was the first to do this.
Hudson Stewart
It’s also kinda about the cp though
Daniel Reyes
I would imagine that CP can't really be stopped anyway and much if it is likely put out there by the feds to bust people. Either way, I don't think governments care about CP or even legal porn for that matter. Its about control. Control over the citizenry. Control over the narrative. Control over what people can or cannot do or can or cannot say or share or see. Governments are just notorious for being control freaks, they can't help it, the more they take the more they want. The more they control the more they power and authority they desire. Enough is never enough. Its like greed. Its not isolated to one government or another either. This is the way they have always been and always will be. Thats why governments should be limited, and there should be checks and balances to how far they can go. Some restriction is actually necessary or you'll never live in a free country.
Evan Walker
not really
Justin Murphy
How can you be this retarded theres 10k+ different ways to talk to someone without using super Jewish big tech company whatever.
Landon Williams
They suck. Something like Retroshare will bypass this easily.
Aaron Flores
Just a reminder, download and backup Tor and I2P. Use a private VPN too. Learn and get used to using p2p networks and sharing media with others on decentralized networks, node-to-node. No matter how bad things get for the World Wide Web they don't have the means to completely cut off decentralized p2p networking.
Unless you are in some sort of active rebellion to the state right now, you are not free. You never were. And you certainly never will be.
Caleb Hall
In real life, unfortunately, this is pretty much true. For some its much worse than others all depending where individuals live. I could only imagine living in the UK today is absolute SHIT.
However, this article is not about the real world, its about the online world where we still have some reminisce of freedom. We can visit whatever sites we like, we can download/share almost anything we like, we can (for the most part) say what we like (few conditions such as personal death threats are restricted of-course), we can find alternative opinions, chat to other peers, we can create our own blogs or media and share it, or sell/buy things online too, we can do a lot of different things online that normally a highly government-regulated platform would NOT allow such unvetted opportunity to exist. So think about that, anyone who says they "don't care" about this issue is 1) very spoiled and 2) taking their online freedoms for granted.
