From age and ID restrictions on the Internet, to charging rappers with “terrorism,” the U.K. is demolishing the most basic civil liberties. If we let them, U.S. leaders may be close behind.

      I’d argue that’s more of a problem with media consolidation and not having some form of truth requirement in broadcast media. When only a handful of organizations own the majority of media outlets and aren’t held to account for their content, this is what we end up with and why we can’t have nice things.
