Censorship and Control: The Battle for Free Speech
This chapter delves into the censorship efforts and control of the message by big authorities, with a focus on Glenn Greenwald's experiences. It highlights Greenwald's involvement in breaking the story of Edward Snowden in 2013 and the difficulties faced in getting it published due to propaganda efforts. The chapter raises concerns about the suppression of dissenting voices and explores the government's role in indirect censorship through pressure and the threat of legal and regulatory reprisals on social media companies.
