    Defamation is very far away from our current situation. Europe is on the correct path imo in holding those who profit from disinformation accountable.

    There should be no right to abuse others verbally or spread disinformation. Of course you can always use this in bad faith as a government but that is what we have assasins for.

      […] There should be no right to abuse others verbally or spread disinformation. Of course you can always use this in bad faith as a government […]

      For clarity, are you referring to the government abusing the judicial system to silence someone with opinions they don’t like?

      I’m unfamiliar with those specific laws. Could you cite what your referring to for my reference?
