THESE PEOPLE ARE AFRAID OF THE TRUTH GETTING INTO PEOPLE’S HANDS. CHECK THIS OUT-This is a quote from the CEO of Newsguard himself-this guy has a problem with speech-so he wants to tank the electronic soapboxes.
Common law will finally apply to the Internet
https://www.niemanlab.org/2020/12/common-law-will-finally-apply-to-the-internet/
“For many of us, the dawn of the commercial use of the internet in the 1990s was a time for optimism, even utopianism. Recalling the sluggish innovation of the telephone era, when AT&T as a regulated monopoly had to get government approval to offer anything beyond a rotary-dial phone, many of us were thrilled when Congress formalized an unregulated internet, declaring in 1996 that the internet would be “unfettered by federal or state regulation.” Entrepreneurs would not have to get permission from a bureaucrat to launch a browser, website, or app.
In the enthusiasm for an open internet, we cheerleaders didn’t notice an unintended consequence when the law went beyond the benefits of permissionless innovation. The law also immunized platforms on the internet from a fundamental part of the common law. Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act declared that digital platforms, unlike analog publishers such as newspapers and magazines, would not be held accountable for the content they published. This was intended to give them immunity as they removed child pornography and other harms, but it became interpreted to mean that Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube could publish whatever they or their users wanted without being held to account. Centuries-old duties of care that apply to every other industry didn’t apply on the internet. They didn’t need to worry about defamation laws or other online harms they caused.
This immunity looks like it will end in 2021, marking a 25-year experiment that resulted in misinformation and hoaxes plaguing online platforms.
By now, news consumers don’t know what sources to believe in their Facebook feeds, resulting in less trust even for the most trustworthy journalism. When it comes to COVID-19 and vaccine news and information on the internet, an “infodemic” has resulted in many people saying they won’t take a COVID-19 vaccine, threatening the opportunity to defeat the virus through herd immunity. NewsGuard has identified 368 websites spreading misinformation about COVID-19 and issues regular reports on superspreaders of healthcare hoaxes on Facebook and other platforms.
Reforming Section 230 has bipartisan support in Congress, and President-elect Biden has even said he would repeal it altogether. The Trump Justice Department laid out reforms to Section 230 that would require the platforms to earn reduced immunity in exchange for showing “good faith” efforts. For the first time, the platforms would have to disclose their criteria for moderating content, show that they apply their criteria consistently — not on “deceptive or pretextual grounds” — and give publishers “timely notice describing with particularity the provider’s reasonable factual basis for the restriction of access and a meaningful opportunity to respond.”
The U.K. government would go further. British parliamentarians are brutal in their hearings as they grill Silicon Valley executives, whose inability to accept responsibility for harms make it clear that their irresponsibility is a feature of the system, not a bug. The U.K. is crafting legislation based on its Online Harms White Paper that would restore basic duties of care to the digital platforms, no longer exempting them from common law duties. For example, the platforms would have to take steps to reduce misinformation by providing their users with information about the sources of news they encounter online. Similarly, the European Commission promulgated a Code of Practice on Disinformation that requires the platforms to provide indications of the trustworthiness of sources online based on journalistic principles.
This is not the first time U.S. law had to be reformed after protecting an emerging industry by exempting it from basic obligations of the common law. In the 19th century, Congress wanted to protect the fledgling U.S. shipping industry from damage caused by accidents at sea. The Limitation of Liability Act of 1851 limited the financial liability for shipping companies from accidents they caused to the often trivial amount of the remaining value of the ship, instead of being held liable for the full extent of the damage caused. Congress eventually had to update the law to hold shippers fully accountable for the damage from oil spills caused by their negligence, no longer immunizing them from the basic duty of care under the common law.
Silicon Valley platforms might not like being compared to ships causing oil spills, but it’s time for the digital platforms to likewise be held accountable for the harm they cause through their information pollution.”

“Land of the FREE, Home of the BRAVE” has turned into Land of the FEE and Home of the SLAVE… together with the CoVid THOUGHT POLICE at the FAA! How do you like your FIRST 10-months of Corona Shrona Communism?
Looking back over the last 10-months, it’s painfully obvious to informed truth seekers that statistical predictions from computer generated models were embarrassingly inaccurate. Lockdowns, social distancing, and oxygen reducing, bacterial causing masks never worked to reduce any illness – they only made people sicker! There was no science to prove that they would. The PCR test for “Covid-19” was totally faulty, but was used anyway for daily news stories of yet another “surge” in “cases” to justify continued restrictions. It’s all been a roller-coaster of theatric lies!
A recent blog article by head eugenicist and global plantation population reduction man Bill Gates underscores the disconcerting reality that the same people who have manipulated the facts around the corona shrona pandemic and its unprecedented lockdowns, draconian masking and social isolation, intend the COVID scare to be but the “appetizer” for a whole battery of social engineering control measures they intend to implement across the entire planet.
A complicit media has so saturated people’s minds with their constant 24/7 social dominance corona campaign, they’ve put the vast majority into a complete state of FEAR and they have believed fraudsters like Fauci, Birx and Gates. Vigilant and well-coordinated censorship of dissenting viewpoints by “trusted” media outlets have conspired to keep the people in the dark about the truth of what’s really going on. Unless you’ve sought out the truth through alternative news sites and used critical thinking skills with some investigative prowess, you’ve been conned into the false narrative along with the blind support of the masses not realizing that it’s all been a cleverly conceived cover story for the real “emergency” – a systemic economic collapse which Klaus Schwab at the World Economic Forum calls a GLOBAL RESET. People have been herded like a flock of sheep toward the cliff, completely oblivious and unaware they were falling off the cliff on their way down into a bottomless pit, rewarded with a $600 “stimulus” check while the global corporations got BILLIONS!
Time to wake up! The GLOBAL RESET, a utopian dream of the international financial elite – the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the UN World Bank, and Klaus Schwab’s World Economic Forum. It will be digital currency to be completely controlled and distributed by these oligarchs with the cooperation of multi-national corporations through a “social credit” system as a part of Agenda 21 and Agenda 2030. This IS their plan and policy of “sustainable development” and “Global Health Security Agenda 2024.
CoVid and the VAX JAB is just a first step to set you up for Moderna’s DARPA Hydrogel transhumanim nanotechnology and Artifical Intelligence so-called “vaccine” to connect to the 5G grid and your further demise on the way to Gate’s global population reduction dream of six feet under!
The END GAME is total GLOBAL Communist/Marxist dominion. The Covid-19 Psychological Warfare CONstruct under the guise of a deadly viral pandemic, lockdowns and other draconian restrictions is to destroy jobs and small businesses in order to remove the ability for financial independence. As long as people have jobs and operate businesses, top-down economic control is possible. Unless they destroy the people’s ability to make a living as employees and entrepreneurs, their long-planned total economic control can never come about.
Hence, the politicized, Rockefeller-created allopathic “medical science” was imposed by the United Nations and its World Health Organization (WHO) through its “member countries” whom have ALL previously signed agreements relinquishing national sovereignty.
The scheme and plan toward total global economic control was set up by fraudulent medical science, fostered by national, State and local health departments, nurtured by the “trusted” FAKE news media, and enforced through police state tactics. Here in the USA, this was implemented under pretext of emergency powers and former President Trump’s National Health Security Strategy. We are STILL under that emergency!
In order to prop-up and cover-up the economic collapse and subsequent destruction for jobs and small businesses in particular, stimulus packages were doled out through a massive hypothecation infusion of $12-Trillion to keep more major corporations – like the airline travel industry – from complete, unrecoverable collapse. They are now just state-owned corporations that must dance to the tune of their global masters. Bottom line: there is NO mathematical solution to this debt crisis. We are off the edge of the cliff.
The powers-that-be are now in the process of foreclosing on every individual and their labor and property. But this process has been expanding for decades, ever since the PRIVATE Federal Reserve System started operations in 1913.
Without financial independence, we all become enslaved, including out children and their posterity. They will have no future and no freedom – unless these globalists are stopped in their tracks!
The plan is to keep us restricted through Rockefeller ‘LOCK STEP’ medical sorcery to try to force us to submit to whatever they tell us to do. Digital travel passes will further restrict your ability to travel or shop at a grocery store. No valid up-to-date health certificate? No “COVID PASS?” Then no commercial travel, no crossing national or maybe even State borders. Consider the ramifications of such a totalitarian reality. They’re already tracking you with your Smart phone!
Time to get wise and not comply: NO MASK, NO TEST, NO JAB!
