Tweet: Here’s the interesting part about Rishi’s tyrannical new online bill…
Yesterday, his government announced that offences under new online laws have kicked in so “criminals can face up to five years behind bars for their demeaning and dangerous actions.”
Part of this new law outlines a new “fake news” offence – a false communications offence – that outlaws the intentional sending of false information that could cause “non-trivial psychological” or physical harm to users online.
The govt provided an example. Basically, if someone encouraged people to inject antiseptic to cure themselves of coronavirus on social media, a court would have to prove that they knew if was not true before making the post.
But guess what? Recognised news publishers and broadcasters (including on demand services), like the BBC etc. are exempt from this provision.

Economist stating what’s really going. Regaining control of the narrative – that they, and only they are the arbiters of ‘truth’
Nearly half of young people say that social media are their main source of news, just as the same platforms decide news is no longer interesting. This should be a worry for everyone concerned https://t.co/SnAleStolg 👇
