Censorship and Collaboration in Counterinsurgency
This chapter explores the 'whole of government, whole of society' approach in U.S. counterinsurgency efforts, examining the collaboration between government agencies, private sectors, and international actors to control dissent and information. It discusses the implications of U.S. diplomatic interventions on media platforms and the pressures faced by social media companies like Facebook in regard to free speech. The chapter highlights the complexities of foreign influence on domestic policies, particularly in Ukraine, and critiques the erosion of democratic freedoms amid geopolitical conflicts.
