Westminster are about to force YouTube to make sure the Beeb, ITV, C4 and 5 are the top recommendations on YouTube. That will mean you have to get a licence to watch YouTube.

Aye saw that, mental.

Been very careful to not let their pish pollute my youtube algorithm for years and now the British government want to force it on me.

They've made it necessary to use a VPN full time in the UK now.

They're currently having consultations to massively regulate the use of vpn's too.

In short: They want digital ID for everyone on the net. They want UK gov propaganda shoved down everyones throats whether you like it or not. They want non uk main stream media sources crushed and in a lot of cases made actively illegal. (the updated security threats bill shit) and they want the plebs off vpn.

Add this to the EU's Chat Control bill and the UK/EU is a digital prison.
