Poland mulls fines for ideological censorship writes Roger Simon. Will the Big Guy follow suit?
The Poles are proposing new laws that would impose fines of $13.5 million on Big Tech social media companies that censor users or remove posts for ideological reasons.
Their Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki put it this way, ironically in a post on Facebook:
“We are now increasingly faced with practices we believed were left in the past. The censoring of free speech, once the domain of totalitarian and authoritarian regimes, is now back, but in a new form, run by corporations, who silence those who think differently.”
