Internet censorship is currently in top form.
Since August 25, 2023, the Digital Services Act (DSA) has
reached a further stage that leads to total censorship.
This measure authorizes the EU to shut down all social networks in the event of social unrest.
The designers of the law in the EU Parliament fail to provide a precise definition of social
unrest, which can be anything that contradicts political correctness if necessary.
However, it becomes quite clear when it comes to implementation.
Since August 25, 19 major online platforms, including TikTok, Snapchat, Instagram and X [formerly Twitter], have had to meet new legal requirements.
This is intended to curb illegal and harmful content defined by the EU.
Otherwise they would be threatened with complete blocking.
Platforms with more than 45 million users in the EU must also provide the Commission
with an initial detailed assessment of their greatest risks to users.
True to the motto: If you want to stay, you have to play into the hands of the politically incorrect.
Otherwise, operators must expect fines of up to six percent of global turnover.
Obviously, the idea is to make it look as if the major social networks
have no choice but to bow to this total censorship.
This is actually a joke, because they have long since become obedient implementers of the New World Order surveillance apparatus.
And even the words of EU Commission President von der Leyen cannot hide this fact.
Von der Leyen took the opportunity to introduce the Digital Services
Act only words of praise in a post on X : We are bringing our European values to the digital world.
With strict rules on transparency and accountability, our Digital
Services Act aims to protect our children, societies and democracies.
As of today, very large online platforms must apply the law. ACH SO!
It is well known that the argument of child protection is brought up when citizens' rights are to be restricted.
MEP Martin Sonneborn [from:
The party] used von der Leyen's words as an opportunity to sharply criticize her disinformation.
Sonneborn confirms that European values enshrined in the DSA are not moving in, but moving out of the Internet.
Not to mention the right to freedom of thought and conscience, the right
to freedom of expression and the freedom and plurality of the media:
Looking through all 54 articles of the fundamental rights of the European Union, laid down in the Charter
of the same name, we have hardly come across an article that has not yet been violated by Ms. von der Leyen's Commission.
This makes it unmistakably clear: Nobody is being protected here - fundamental rights are being smashed.
In conclusion, Sonneborn makes demands of Ms. von der Leyen and points out that in her office as
President of the EU Commission, she is fulfilling the offence of Article 54 of the EU Charter,
which prohibits the abuse of rights, because she is distorting European values beyond recognition.
That is why it is once again time to raise awareness of hypocritical internet censorship, which serves neither the protection of freedom of opinion, transparency nor enlightenment, but aims to make independent reporters disappear before our very eyes.
