Censorship and the Control of Information

The podcast episode delves into the issue of censorship and the control of information, which is seen as one of the top news stories of our time. It discusses how censorship is primarily driven by exerting control rather than protecting the public. Several lawsuits against big tech companies like Google and Facebook are mentioned, alleging that they are acting as proxies for the government in censoring content. The collaboration between social media giants, news organizations, and government agencies is highlighted, with evidence of secret collaborations to crush alternative news sites. The involvement of intelligence and law enforcement agencies in censorship is also emphasized.
