The Orwellian Lie About ‘Digital Safety’: Julian Assange’s Father Explains
“In the United Kingdom, they’ve now introduced a series of legislations under the name of digital safety, which has nothing to do with digital safety. What it’s principally concerned with, in its entirety, is the repression of information and the capacity of government to move against digital media.”
“The governments have moved to restrict our capacity to get at information to evaluate what the government is doing and to evaluate where we stand relative to the government’s position and actions. This, I would say, is tragic.”
“Once a government embarks upon the repression of information, it means that its community is ill-informed. And as a consequence, the government itself becomes ill-informed. Because everything, all genius, ascends from the people. It doesn’t fall like rain from clouds.”
