GAB NO MORE!

The UK government's war on free speech and privacy has picked up pace now Labour are implementing the globalist agenda.  Starmer's government is currently embroiled in a legal battle with tech giant Apple, over access to user's data, including personal communications.  This information is intentionally encrypted by Apple to protect user's privacy, but the state expects to monitor and presumably police it like a totalitarian regime.  Ironically, the government wanted to protect its own privacy by demanding that these legal proceedings be conducted in secrecy, a request thankfully denied by the judge.

If the government gets away with this, they will surely take on every other tech firm that offers end to end encryption services to its users, such as WhatsApp.

State intrusion and censorship was highlighted again this week with free speech social media platform Gab pulling out of the UK altogether.  Gab is a platform we have used in the past, particularly in light of censorship conducted by much larger platforms such as Facebook and what was then known as Twitter.  Earlier this week Gab decided that rather than have the British government decide what users posted or were allowed to see, it would simply pull the plug.

Now, UK users attempting to access Gab are greeted by the following page.


Gab CEO Andrew Torba released a separate statement on X last month:

"The UK Government has demanded that Gab submit to their new censorship regime under the UK Online Safety Act, threatening massive fines (18 million euros or 10% of our annual revenue) for not policing speech.  We will not comply.  We will not pay one cent.  We will defend our UK users' right to speak freely and reject any law that compels censorship."

Any UK Gab users who want to maintain access to the site should perhaps think about using a VPN.  In fact VPNs are generally a vital tool in the fight for internet freedom.

Regarding the Online Safety Act, we should note that this dystopian law was initiated by the other side of the Uniparty.  The narrative for the implementation of this unjust legislation was driven by the murder of Tory MP David Amess in 2021, despite the fact he was murdered by a fanatic motivated by Islam - not online 'disinformation'.  The way in which the Amess murder was exploited to suppress totally unrelated online speech was cynical and should alarm anyone who is awake to the similar agenda currently being pushed surrounding a Netflix drama called Adolescence.

Keir Starmer has referred to said show as a 'documentary' that should be shown in schools.  We would suggest 1984 as a much more appropriate and educational tool at this point in time.

  1. Yes, managed to access GAb using a VPN. Not entirely satisfactory, but it works...
